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.

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.
