Pick your landing spot and trust your swing—flop shot challenge

Set up 9 target zones on the green using buckets, strings, or tees. Space them in a 3x3 grid, with about 3 feet between each.

Divide 36 balls into 9 groups of

Make 10 piles of 4 balls each, set 5 to 40 yards from the hole. Space the piles 5 to 10 yards apart in two lines, with 2 yards between piles in each line.

Hit 4 shots to try to stop balls inside each of the 9 zones. Finish all 4 shots in one zone before moving to the next zone in order.

Switch between different ball piles while practicing each zone to get different lies and angles.

Count each shot that stops in the right zone as a success.

After all 36 shots, count how many were successful and enter your score in the app, out of 36 attempts.

Arrange 10 piles of balls in two lines, with 5 piles in each line. Each pile is 4 yards or meters apart. The two lines are 5 to 10 yards or meters apart.

Put the piles between 5 and 40 yards or meters from the hole. Do not put them on the green.

On the green, use string or tees to make two circles around the hole: one small circle with a 6-foot (2-meter) radius and one big circle with a 15-foot (5-meter) radius.

Hit flop shots from each pile. Try to land the ball in the circles. Balls in the small circle are best, in the big circle are medium, and outside both circles are misses.

Hit 36 total flop shots. This means 3 sets of 12 shots.

For the first 12 shots, aim for the small circle. For the next 12, aim for the area between the two circles. For the last 12, aim anywhere inside the big circle.

Pick any pile to start. Hit one flop shot from each pile. Cover all piles evenly.

Count each ball that lands where you aimed.

Place two ball markers on the green, about 10 feet apart.

Choose a spot on the uphill slope, 5 to 20 yards from the hole. Use this spot every time for the test.

Hit 18 flop shots from this spot. Aim at the targets, switching every 3 shots between them until all 18 shots are done.

Move to a spot on the downhill slope, 5 to 20 yards from the hole. Use this spot every time for these shots.

Hit 18 flop shots from the downhill spot. Switch targets every 3 shots until all 18 are done.

Count shots that stop within 3 feet of the marker as successful.

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

Set up two lines of 18 balls each, 1 foot apart. The lines are 6 feet apart.

On the green, mark two circles around the hole. The inner circle is 6 feet from the hole. The outer circle is 15 feet from the hole.

From 5 to 20 yards away, hit flop shots. Hit 3 balls from the first line, then 3 from the second. Keep switching until all 36 balls are hit.

The goal is to make balls stop inside the circles. Balls in the inner circle are birdie-level. Balls in the outer circle but outside the inner are par-level.

At the end, count how many balls stopped in the circles and enter the total out of 36 attempts in the app.

Split 36 balls into two groups of

Put one group at the uphill slope, and one group at the downhill slope, both in deep rough 5 to 20 yards from the hole.

On the green, make three target zones side by side, each about 3 feet wide and within 10 feet of the hole. Label them Zone 1 (left), Zone 2 (center), Zone 3 (right).

From the uphill position, hit 18 flop shots. Aim 6 balls in Zone 1, 6 in Zone 2, and 6 in Zone

From the downhill position, hit 18 flop shots. Aim 6 balls in Zone 1, 6 in Zone 2, and 6 in Zone

Count each shot that stops in the right zone as a success.

Enter the number of successes in the app, out of 36 attempts.

Set up 36 balls in 9 piles of 4 balls each, in two lines, 5–20 yards from the hole.

Put markers on the green to make 3 landing zones, each zone 6 feet apart in a line.

Place 40 balls in two lines of 20 balls. The balls in each line are 1 foot apart. The two lines are 5 to 10 yards apart.

On the green use sticks or string to make 3 landing zones in a straight line. Each zone is 6 feet apart.

Hit 36 flop shots from the ball lines to the landing zones.

Make 3 groups of 12 shots.

For each group aim for only one landing zone.

After each group of 12 shots, switch to the other ball line.
