Divide each row into 3 zones by distance: Zone 1 (5–13 yards), Zone 2 (14–21 yards), Zone 3 (22–30 yards), with 6 balls in each zone.

Hit all 36 balls: start with all balls in Zone 1, then all balls in Zone 2, then all balls in Zone

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.
