Mark two circles on the green around the hole: one with a 6-foot radius, another with a 15-foot radius.

Hit 36 shots, in two groups of 18 shots.

For the first 18 shots, aim for the small circle. For the next 18 shots, aim for the big circle.

Hit balls in order from any line, switch lines as wanted.

Count each ball that stops in the right circle as a success.

After 36 shots, count how many hit their target circles and enter your score in the app out of 36 attempts.

Hit 12 shots at Target 1 from the first line.

Hit 12 shots at Target 2 from the second line.

Hit 12 shots at Target 3 from the first line.

A shot is a success if it stops within 10 feet of the target.

Count how many successful shots out of 36 attempts and enter score in the app.

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

Mark 3 target zones on or near the green, spaced far apart.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots: 12 for each target zone.

Pick any pile and hit 12 balls, trying to land and stop the ball in the first target zone.

Hit 12 shots at the second target zone, then 12 at the third.

Keep the same ball setup for every shot. Don’t change ball position or lie in the pile.

At the end, enter the number of balls that stopped in the target zones out of 36.

Make 10 piles of 4 balls (40 balls) in two lines, crossing each other near the green, 1 to 10 yards from the green and 5 to 30 yards from the hole. Keep piles 2 yards apart, lines 5 to 10 yards apart.

On the green, use string or tees to mark two circles around the hole: one with a 6-foot radius (inner), the other with a 15-foot radius (outer).

Use only 36 balls (9 piles of 4) for this test.

Split the 36 shots into two groups of

For the first 18 shots, try to land the ball inside the small circle.

For the next 18 shots, try to land the ball inside the big circle but outside the small circle.

Play bump-and-run shots by hitting from different piles, one after the other, keeping the same setup and order.

Count as a success if the ball stops in the correct circle. If not, it is a miss.

Count how many balls finished where they should in both circles. Enter your score in the app, out of 36 attempts.

Put 36 balls into 9 groups of 4 balls each around the green, spaced 1–10 yards from the edge and 5–30 yards from the hole.

Use string, tees, or markers to make 9 stop zones on the green, spread out as different landing spots.

Hit 4 bump-and-run shots at each stop zone, for a total of 36 shots.

Start at any group, aim at the first stop zone, hit 4 shots, then move to the next zone; repeat until all zones have been used.

Count each ball that stops inside the target zone as a success.

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

Place two parallel lines of balls beside the green. Each line has 18 balls spaced 1 foot apart. The lines are 5 to 10 yards apart.

On the green, mark 9 stop zones using tees, string, or buckets. Arrange the zones in 3 rows of 3, spaced evenly.

Hit 36 bump-n-run shots. Divide them into 9 groups of 4 shots.

Hit 4 shots from one ball line toward Stop Zone

Try to stop each ball in that zone.

Switch to the other ball line and hit 4 shots toward Stop Zone

Keep switching ball lines and hit 4 shots at each stop zone in order (Zone 1 to Zone 9).

Count every ball that stops in the right stop zone as a success.

Add total successful stops and enter the score in the app, out of 36 attempts.

Scatter 36 balls into 6 lines of 6 balls each on grass near the green. Put each line 1 to 10 yards or meters from the green and 5 to 30 yards or meters from the hole.

At the edge of the green, set up 3 targets spaced about 6 feet (2 meters) apart in a straight line. Name them Target 1, Target 2, and Target

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots. Aim 12 shots at Target 1, 12 at Target 2, and 12 at Target

From each line, hit all 6 balls at the chosen target for that group of 12 shots. Switch targets after every 12 shots.

A shot is a success if the ball stops within 10 feet (3 meters) of the target.

Record how many shots land inside the 10-foot zone, out of 36 attempts, and enter the score in the app.
