Thread the needle: roll your Bump'n'Run to tap-in range

Place a bucket of balls next to the green with 2 straight lines of 20 balls arranged perpendicular to each other.

Space the lines 5 to 10 yards/meters apart, with each ball about 1 foot (30 cm) apart in each line.

Mark two circles on the green: an inner circle with a 6-foot (2 m) radius and an outer circle with a 15-foot (5 m) radius around the hole.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots in 2 sets of 18 shots, switching between the two lines.

Hit 3 to 5 shots from one line, then switch to the other line, until all 36 balls are played.

Try to land balls in the circles: inside the inner circle is best, inside the outer circle is okay.

Count how many balls stopped inside the outer circle (including the inner circle), and enter your score in the app out of 36 attempts.

Make two piles of 18 golf balls near the green: one pile has balls above foot level, one pile has balls below foot level.

Mark three landing zones in a line on the green's edge, about 5 feet apart (Zone A, Zone B, Zone C).

Hit 18 shots from the above-feet pile and 18 shots from the below-feet pile, for a total of 36 shots.

For each pile, hit 6 balls to Zone A, 6 balls to Zone B, and 6 balls to Zone C.

Count how many balls landed in the correct zone.

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

Place 18 balls in a row on the fairway. Place another 18 balls in a row 5 yards away from the first row.

Label one row “Above Feet” and the other row “Below Feet” according to the slope.

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

Take turns hitting every third ball from one row, then switch to the other row and do the same.

Try to stop each ball as close as possible to the hole.

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

When finished with all 36 shots, record the number of successful shots out of 36 in the app.

Set up 10 piles of balls in two lines that cross each other. Put 5 piles in each line. Leave space between all piles and lines.

Put the piles 1 to 10 yards/meters from the green and 5 to 30 yards/meters from the hole.

On the green, mark two big circles around the hole. Make the first circle 6 feet (2 meters) out from the hole, and the second circle 15 feet (5 meters) out from the hole.

There are 36 shots total. Split them into 3 groups of 12 shots.

First 12 shots: try to stop the ball inside the small (inner) circle. Next 12: try to stop the ball inside the big (outer) circle but outside the small circle. Last 12: try to keep the ball anywhere on the green.

Hit one ball from each pile. Keep moving around the piles any way until all 36 shots are done using the right target for each group.

Count how many balls land in the right place for each group: inside the small circle for the first 12, in the big circle but outside the small one for the next 12, and anywhere on the green for the last

Enter score in the app, out of 36 attempts.

Set up two lines of 18 golf balls each on a sloped fairway near the green: one line on the uphill slope, one line on the downhill slope. Balls should be spaced 5 yards apart, between 5 and 30 yards from the hole.

Place 3 target zones on the green in a row, 6 feet apart. Call them Zone 1 (closest), Zone 2 (middle), and Zone 3 (farthest).

Hit 36 total bump-and-run shots: 18 from the uphill line, 18 from the downhill line.

From the uphill line, hit 6 shots to each zone (6 to Zone 1, 6 to Zone 2, 6 to Zone 3). Always hit every third ball, skipping two balls between shots.

For the downhill line, repeat the process: 6 shots to each zone, using every third ball.

Count a success each time a ball stops inside the intended target zone.

When all 36 shots are done, record how many balls landed in the correct zone, out of 36 attempts, in the app.

Divide 36 golf balls into 3 groups of 12 balls. Put each group in the rough near the green.

On the green, mark 3 target zones about 15 feet from the rough.

Hit bump-and-run shots, aiming for each of the 3 zones in order. Hit 12 shots at zone 1, 12 at zone 2, and 12 at zone

Each ball that lands and stops inside its target zone counts as a success.

Keep your stance and ball position the same for every shot.

After all 36 shots, count how many landed in the correct zones and enter the total score out of 36 in the app.

Make two piles of 18 golf balls at the edge of the green: one pile for above the feet, one for below the feet.

Mark three landing zones on the green, each 4 feet wide and 5 feet apart in a straight line.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots: 18 from above feet, 18 from below feet.

For each lie (above and below feet), hit 6 shots to each landing zone (6 per zone × 3 zones = 18 shots per lie).

Keep the same ball setup and distance for all shots. Only change where you are aiming.

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

After 36 shots, record the number of successful shots out of 36 attempts 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.

Put 36 golf balls into 2 piles of 18 balls each. One pile goes next to the edge of the green, and the other pile goes 5 yards/meters from the edge.

Mark 3 target zones on the green in a line. Each zone is about 4 feet wide, and the zones are 4 feet apart.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots total. Aim 12 shots for each target zone, one zone at a time.

Start with the pile closest to the green. Hit 12 shots at Zone 1, then 6 shots at Zone

Go to the pile 5 yards/meters away. Hit 6 more shots at Zone 2, then 12 shots at Zone

Count each ball that lands and stops inside the correct zone as a success.

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