Master the art of touch: no more long comeback putts

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.

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.

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.

Put 40 balls into 8 piles of 5 balls each. Place the piles between 1 and 10 yards from the green and 5 to 30 yards from the hole.

On the green, use string or tees to make 4 equal sections inside a circle with a 6-foot radius around the hole.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots, split into 4 groups of 9 shots. Each group tries to stop the ball in a different section.

Choose any pile and hit 9 shots at the first section. Then do 9 shots for the next section, and repeat for all 4 sections.

For each set of 9 shots, use any pile, but keep the same setup for all shots.

Count each shot that stops in the correct section as a success.

Add up the number of successes and 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.

Make two lines of 18 balls each, one foot apart, next to the green, in an L-shape.

Put 3 markers at the edge of the green, 6 feet apart, to make 3 landing zones in a row.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots: 12 shots at each landing zone.

Switch between ball lines. For each zone, hit 3 shots from one line, then 3 shots from the other, until all 12 shots per zone are done.

Each time a ball stops in the right zone, count it as a successful shot.

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