Turn Tough Lies into Easy Pars

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.

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.

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.

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 10 piles of balls in two lines, 5 piles in each line. The lines are 3 yards or meters apart, and each pile in a line has 4 yards or meters between them.

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

On the green, mark 4 equal quadrants using string or tees. Each quadrant is about 6 feet or 2 meters in radius.

Do 36 bump-and-run shots in total. Divide them into 4 groups of 9 shots. For each group, aim for a single quadrant (Quadrant 1, then 2, 3, 4).

Start at any pile. Hit 9 balls trying to land in Quadrant

Then do the same for Quadrants 2, 3, and 4, hitting 9 shots for each quadrant.

Count each shot that lands in the correct quadrant as a point.

Add your total points out of 36 tries and enter the score in the app.

Set up 9 piles of 4 balls each, spread between 1 and 10 yards from the green and 5 to 30 yards from the hole.

Mark 9 stop zones on the green using tees, string, or small buckets.

Do 36 bump-and-run shots, 4 shots at each of the 9 stop zones.

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.

Count shots that stop inside the right stop zone.

Add up how many shots were successful, and enter this number out of 36 attempts.

Place two markers on the green, 15 yards apart.

Split 36 shots into two groups of

Hit 18 bump-and-run shots from the first rough spot at the first marker, aiming to stop the ball near it.

Move to a different nearby rough spot.

Hit 18 shots at the second marker from the new spot.

Count each shot as a success if the ball stops within 3 feet of the marker.

Use the same setup and stance for all shots.

Total the number of successful shots out of 36 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.

Take 40 balls and make 10 piles with 4 balls each. Put the piles into 2 lines of 5 piles, spaced 5 to 10 yards/meters apart.

Place the piles on grass, each 1 to 10 yards/meters from the green and 5 to 30 yards/meters from the hole.

On the green, use string or tees to make a circle about 6 feet (2 meters) wide. Mark 4 equal parts in the circle.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots. Make 9 shots for each of the 4 circle parts.

Start from any pile, aiming for the first circle part. After 9 shots, go to the second part, then the third, then the fourth.

Change piles as wanted to practice from different spots, but keep piles the same.

Count a shot as success if it stops in the right part of the circle.

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