Program: Wedge Distance Control
Complete the Ladder Challenge using wedges only. Hit one bucket of ~50 balls.
Set up three zones (Ladder 1, Ladder 2, Ladder 3) in a line, 4 yards/meters apart, before the flag.
Try to land and stop the ball in each zone, within 4 yards/meters of the flag.
Hit 36 wedge shots, 12 for each zone.
For each set of 12, land one ball in Ladder 1, then Ladder 2, then Ladder 3, in order.
Use any wedge (LW, SW, GW, PW) but keep setup the same for every shot.
Count a shot as a success if it lands and stops in the right zone.
Add up all successful shots out of 36 and enter score in the app.
