For each group, try to stop all 4 balls in one stop zone.

Hit 4 balls from one line to the first stop zone.

Move to a different line and hit 4 balls to the second stop zone.

Repeat until 4 balls have been hit to every stop zone.

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

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.

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.

Hit 36 shots total, 12 shots aimed at each landing zone.

For each zone, hit 6 shots from the first line and 6 shots from the second line.

Do this for all three zones, switching lines after every 6 shots; always try to land in the target zone.

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

After 36 shots, add your total successes and enter your score in the app, out of 36 attempts.

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

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.

Put 36 golf balls into 3 groups of 12 balls. Spread the groups around the green between 1 and 10 yards from the edge and 5 to 30 yards from the hole.
