Master the art of touch: no more long comeback putts

Place two lines of 18 balls next to the green, 1 foot apart in each line, and 5 to 10 yards apart from each other.

Mark 3 landing zones at the edge of the green, each zone 6 feet apart in a straight line.

Hit 36 shots total, 12 shots aimed at each landing zone.

For each zone, hit 6 shots from the first line and 6 shots from the second line.

Do this for all three zones, switching lines after every 6 shots; always try to land in the target zone.

Count each shot that lands and stops in the target zone as a success.

After 36 shots, add your total successes and enter your score in the app, out of 36 attempts.

Place 10 piles of balls in two lines that cross like a plus sign. Each line has 5 piles, 3 yards/meters apart.

The piles should be 1 to 10 yards/meters from the green and 5 to 30 yards/meters from the hole.

Mark 9 stop zones on the green in a 3x3 grid, spaced to cover different parts.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots, divided into 9 groups of 4 shots.

For each group, pick a stop zone and hit 4 shots from any piles.

A shot is successful if it stops in the target stop zone.

Repeat until 4 shots have been aimed at each stop zone.

Count how many shots stopped inside their target zones. Enter your total out of 36 attempts.

Set up 4 rows of 9 balls each, spaced 1 foot apart. Each row is 3 yards apart.

On the green, use strings or tees to mark 4 circles, each 6 feet wide.

Hit 9 balls at each circle, for a total of 36 shots.

Start at any row. Hit 9 balls at the first circle, then the next 9 at the second, and so on for all circles.

Keep the balls in the same place and aim at the target circle each time.

Count how many balls stop inside each circle after 9 shots.

Add up the number of balls that stopped inside the target circles out of 36, and enter score in the app, out of 36 attempts.

Prepare 36 balls and make 4 piles of 9 balls each.

Put each pile in a different spot, 1 to 10 yards from the green and 5 to 30 yards from the hole.

Mark 4 areas on the green using string or tees, each area should be about 6 feet across.

Hit 36 bump-n-run shots, trying to land 9 balls in each area.

Start from one pile, aim at one area, and hit all 9 balls. Move to the next pile and area.

Keep going until all 36 shots are done, 9 shots per area.

Count how many balls stopped in the target area each time.

After all 36 shots, enter how many successes out of 36 in the app.

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

Put the piles 1 to 10 yards/meters from the green and 5 to 30 yards/meters from the hole, on the same type of grass.

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.

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

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

Place two lines of 18 balls each near the green. Balls are 1 foot apart. Lines are 5 to 10 yards apart.

On the green, make a circle around the hole (6 feet radius) and divide it into 4 equal quadrants with string or markers.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots total, 9 shots at each quadrant.

For each set of 9 shots, aim to stop the ball inside one chosen quadrant.

Hit 4 or 5 shots in a row from one line, then switch to the other line and finish the 9 shots for that quadrant.

After 9 shots to one quadrant, move to the next quadrant and repeat the routine until all 4 quadrants have been used.

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

After all 36 shots, add up successful shots in the intended quadrants and enter score in the app, out of 36 attempts.

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.

Set up 4 lines of 3 balls each, for one player. Place balls 1 foot apart in each line. Place lines 5 yards apart. Total 36 balls.

On the green, use sticks or string to mark 3 landing zones in a row, each zone 6 feet apart.

Divide the 36 balls into 3 groups of

Aim 12 balls at Landing Zone 1, 12 at Zone 2, and 12 at Zone

Hit all 12 balls at Zone 1, then 12 at Zone 2, then 12 at Zone

Count each ball that stops inside the target zone as successful. After all 36 shots, count how many were successful, and record score out of 36.

Set up 9 piles of 4 balls each, spread between 1 and 10 yards from the green and 5 to 30 yards from the hole.

Mark 9 stop zones on the green using tees, string, or small buckets.

Do 36 bump-and-run shots, 4 shots at each of the 9 stop zones.

From any pile, hit 4 shots to the first stop zone.

Do the same for the other stop zones, always 4 shots per zone, using the original ball setup.

Count shots that stop inside the right stop zone.

Add up how many shots were successful, and enter this number out of 36 attempts.
