Turn Tough Lies into Easy Pars

Make two piles of 18 balls: one on an uphill slope, one on a downhill slope, both between 0 and 5 yards from the green.

Mark three target zones on the green’s edge at 3 feet, 6 feet, and 9 feet from where the ball should land.

Split the 36 shots into 3 groups of 12 shots: 12 at the closest zone, 12 at the middle zone, and 12 at the farthest zone.

From the uphill pile, hit 6 shots to the closest zone, then 6 shots to the middle zone.

From the downhill pile, hit 6 shots to the farthest zone, then 6 shots to the closest zone.

Repeat as needed until all 36 shots are done: 12 to each zone using both piles.

Count the shots that stop inside the correct zone.

After all 36 shots, enter the number of successful shots in the app out of 36 attempts.

Place two straight lines of 18 golf balls each on flat ground near the green.

Space the lines 5 yards apart and put them 5 to 30 yards from the hole.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots.

In the first line, hit every third ball, skipping the two in between.

At the end of the first line, switch to the second line and do the same. Alternate lines until all 36 shots are hit.

Place three target zones on the green in a line.

For the first 12 shots, aim for the closest target zone.

For the next 12 shots, aim for the middle zone.

For the last 12 shots, aim for the farthest zone.

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

After 36 shots, total your number of successful shots out of 36 and enter your score in the app.

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.

Gather 36 balls and split them into 2 groups of

Stand on a slope where the ball is above your feet for the first 18 shots.

Choose one target on the green to aim at.

Hit 18 bump-and-run shots, trying to get close to the target from this lie.

Move to a slope where the ball is below your feet for the next 18 shots.

Hit 18 bump-and-run shots at the same target from this lie.

Count how many balls stop close to the pin. Record that number as your score out of 36 in the app.

Place 36 balls into 6 groups of 6 balls.

Mark 3 target pins on the green, 6 feet apart in a line or arc.

From above feet, hit 18 shots, 6 at each pin in order.

From below feet, hit 18 shots, 6 at each pin in order.

Keep the same ball setup and lie each time. Only change slope.

Count each ball that stops within 3 feet of the target pin as a success.

After 36 shots, add up successes out of 36 and enter score in the app.

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 the ball in the sloped rough, 5 to 30 yards from the hole, with the ball above your feet.

Place three targets evenly spaced left, center, and right of the hole, all about the same distance from your ball.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots: 18 with the ball above your feet and 18 with the ball below your feet.

For each lie, split the 18 shots into 3 groups of 6, one group for each target.

With the ball above your feet, hit 6 shots to the left target, 6 to center, and 6 to right, in any order.

Move the ball below your feet and repeat: 6 shots to left, 6 to center, 6 to right.

Count each shot that stops inside the target area as a success.

Add up your total successful shots and enter your score in the app, out of 36 attempts.

Set up 10 piles of balls with 4 balls in each pile.

Make 3 landing zones on the green, 6 feet apart in a straight line.

Hit 36 shots, with 12 shots at each landing zone.

Start from any pile and try to land 12 balls in the first landing zone.

After 12 shots, aim 12 shots at the second zone, then 12 at the third zone.

Count each ball that stays in the correct zone as a success.

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

Set up two lines of balls next to the green on a slope. Each line has 18 balls, 5 yards apart, between 5 and 30 yards from the hole.

One line has balls above foot level, the other line has balls below foot level.

There are two groups: 18 shots from balls above feet, and 18 shots from balls below feet.

For each group, hit every third ball in the line until you hit all

Aim each shot to land and stop in a target zone on the green, 5 to 10 yards from the hole.

First, hit all 18 balls from above feet, then all 18 from below feet.

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

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