Open up and let it fly: alignment for flop shots

Prepare two sets of 18 balls: one set for above-feet shots, one set for below-feet shots.

Mark three target zones on the green: left, center, and right.

Divide 36 shots into three groups of 12: each group has 6 above-feet and 6 below-feet shots. Each group aims 2 shots at each zone.

From deep rough and sloped lies, hit two flop shots at each target zone: first above-feet, then below-feet, for all zones.

Keep the ball setup the same for all shots. Only change the target zone.

Count a ball as a success if it lands and stops in the intended zone.

Add up total successes out of 36 attempts and enter the score in the app.

Set up 10 piles of balls in two lines. Each line has 5 piles, spaced 3 yards or meters apart.

Put these piles on grass, 5 to 20 yards or meters from the hole, but not on the green.

Mark 3 targets near the green, spaced around the hole (left, center, right).

Hit 36 flop shots in total. Make 3 groups of 12 shots.

For the first group, aim at the left target. For the second group, aim at the center target. For the third group, aim at the right target.

Pick any pile to start each group. Hit each ball at the assigned target.

A successful shot is when the ball stops closest to the right target area.

After all 36 shots, count the shots that stopped closest to each target.

Set up 2 target zones on the green: one uphill, one downhill, about 10 feet apart.

Put 18 balls in the uphill rough, and 18 in the downhill rough.

Hit 18 flop shots from the uphill rough and try to land each ball in the uphill target zone.

Hit 18 flop shots from the downhill rough and try to land each ball in the downhill target zone.

If the ball lands and stays in the target zone, it counts as a success.

Always keep the way you set up each ball the same; only the target zone changes.

After all 36 shots, count how many were successful out of 36 and enter your score in the app.

Make two piles of 18 balls on rough grass, 5-40 yards from the hole.

Mark three equal target zones on the green about 5 feet apart: Zone A (closest), Zone B (middle), Zone C (farthest).

Hit 36 flop shots in three sets: 12 shots to Zone A, then 12 to Zone B, then 12 to Zone C.

Switch between the two piles when hitting your shots.

Try to land and stop the ball inside the correct zone. Count each ball in the right zone as a success.

Hit 18 flop shots from a slope with the ball above your feet, aiming at the first target.

Hit 18 flop shots from a slope with the ball below your feet, aiming at the second target.

Count how many balls land and stop within 3 feet of each target. These are successes.

Keep your ball setup the same for all shots.

After all 36 shots, record how many were successful out of 36 in the app.

Place two ball markers on the green, about 10 feet apart.

Choose a spot on the uphill slope, 5 to 20 yards from the hole. Use this spot every time for the test.

Hit 18 flop shots from this spot. Aim at the targets, switching every 3 shots between them until all 18 shots are done.

Move to a spot on the downhill slope, 5 to 20 yards from the hole. Use this spot every time for these shots.

Hit 18 flop shots from the downhill spot. Switch targets every 3 shots until all 18 are done.

Count shots that stop within 3 feet of the marker as successful.

Add up all successful shots out of 36 and enter the score in the app.

Arrange 36 balls into 9 piles of 4 balls each, making 2 lines that cross each other. Keep piles about 2 yards apart, and lines about 5 to 10 yards apart.

On the green, make two circles: a small one (2-meter radius) and a big one (5-meter radius) around the hole.

Hit all 36 flop shots and try to land each ball inside the circles.

Hit 18 shots aiming for the small circle and 18 shots aiming for the big circle.

Change where shots come from by using different piles, hitting 2 to 4 shots from each pile that land inside a circle.

Count balls inside either circle as successes.

Add up all successful shots and enter the total out of 36 in the app.

Set up 10 piles of balls in two lines that cross at a right angle. Each pile has enough balls for 3 shots. Place piles 5-40 yards from the hole on grass.

On the green, mark two circles around the hole: a 6-foot circle (bullseye) and a 15-foot circle.

Hit 36 flop shots total. From each pile, hit 3 shots trying to land near the hole.

Split the 36 shots into 2 rounds of

In each round, hit 1 shot from each of the 10 piles, then hit 1 more shot from the first 8 piles.

Score: inside 6 feet = birdie, inside 15 feet = par, outside 15 feet = bogey.

Count how many shots land inside each circle.

Place 36 golf balls into 6 piles of 6 balls each around the practice green.

Set up 2 target zones on the green about 6 feet apart: Zone A (closer to the edge) and Zone B (closer to the hole).

Hit 36 flop shots: 18 shots for Zone A and 18 for Zone B.

First, from piles above your feet, hit 3 shots per pile to Zone A, then 3 shots per pile to Zone B, switching piles as needed.

Next, repeat the same sequence from piles below your feet: 9 shots to Zone A and 9 shots to Zone B.

Count shots that land and stop inside the correct zone as a success.
