Open up and let it fly: alignment for flop shots

Prepare two sets of 18 balls: one set for above-feet shots, one set for below-feet shots.

Mark three target zones on the green: left, center, and right.

Divide 36 shots into three groups of 12: each group has 6 above-feet and 6 below-feet shots. Each group aims 2 shots at each zone.

From deep rough and sloped lies, hit two flop shots at each target zone: first above-feet, then below-feet, for all zones.

Keep the ball setup the same for all shots. Only change the target zone.

Count a ball as a success if it lands and stops in the intended zone.

Add up total successes out of 36 attempts and enter the score in the app.

Place 40 balls into 10 piles of 4 balls each, with the piles in two lines of 5 piles. Lines are about 7 yards apart, and piles are about 2 yards apart within each line.

Mark 9 stop zones as a 3-by-3 grid using tees, string, or markers. Zones are about 3 feet apart.

Hit 36 balls in total, aiming to land 4 balls in each of the 9 stop zones.

Hit 4 balls at the first stop zone from any pile, then move to the next zone and hit 4 balls there. Repeat until all 9 zones are done.

Each time a ball stops in the correct zone, count a point.

After 36 shots, add up how many balls landed in the correct zones and enter your score in the app, out of 36 attempts.

Place 36 balls in two groups of 18 balls each for uphill and downhill shots.

Set up three targets on the green: right, center, and left of the hole, each 6 feet apart.

Hit 12 flop shots from uphill slope at the right target.

Hit 6 shots from uphill at the center target, then 6 at the left target (total 18 uphill shots).

From downhill slope, hit 12 shots at the right target, 6 at center, 6 at left (total 18 downhill shots).

Count shots that stop within 3 feet of the target as success.

Write down your number of successful shots out of 36 attempts in the app.

Set up two lines of 18 balls each. The lines should cross at a right angle. Each ball is 1 foot apart.

Put two targets on the green, 5 to 10 yards apart. The targets are set 5 to 20 yards away from the ball lines.

Hit 36 flop shots: 18 shots from the first line, 18 shots from the second line.

For each line, split the 18 shots into 3 groups of 6 balls.

For each set of 6 balls, aim at one target. Try to land the ball within 10 feet of the target.

Take turns aiming each set at a different target.

Count each ball that lands within 10 feet of the target as a success.

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

Put 18 balls in one bucket for shots above your feet, and 18 balls in another bucket for shots below your feet.

On the practice green, set up 3 target zones in a row, about 10 to 15 feet from the hole.

Split the 36 balls into 3 groups of 12 balls.

For the first 12 balls, hit from above feet and aim for Target Zone

For the next 12 balls, hit from below feet and aim for Target Zone

For the last 12 balls, switch between above and below feet every 2 balls and aim for Target Zone

Always keep the ball on the correct slope as needed, only change which target zone you aim at as above.

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

When done, count how many successes out of 36 and enter the score in the app.

Set up 3 target zones on the green at 5, 12, and 20 yards from where the balls will be hit. Mark each zone with cones.

Place 36 balls in 3 groups of 12 balls each.

Hit 12 balls to try to land them in the 5 yard zone.

Hit 12 balls to try to land them in the 12 yard zone.

Hit 12 balls to try to land them in the 20 yard zone. Enter your score in the app, out of 36 attempts.

Do not change your ball position or stance during the test.

Count each ball that lands and stays inside the right target zone as a success.

Place 40 balls into 10 piles of 4 balls each. Arrange them in two lines of 5 piles each, lines must cross each other.

Make sure the lines are 7 yards apart. In a line, make sure each pile is 2 yards apart.

Set up 3 flags in a row, 10 feet apart. Each flag is a target for hitting the balls.

Hit 36 balls in total. Hit 12 balls at each target.

Hit the balls by switching between piles in the two lines.

If a ball lands within 10 feet of the target, count it as a success.

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

Split 36 balls into two groups of

Put one group at the uphill slope, and one group at the downhill slope, both in deep rough 5 to 20 yards from the hole.

On the green, make three target zones side by side, each about 3 feet wide and within 10 feet of the hole. Label them Zone 1 (left), Zone 2 (center), Zone 3 (right).

From the uphill position, hit 18 flop shots. Aim 6 balls in Zone 1, 6 in Zone 2, and 6 in Zone

From the downhill position, hit 18 flop shots. Aim 6 balls in Zone 1, 6 in Zone 2, and 6 in Zone

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

Enter the number of successes in the app, out of 36 attempts.

Set up 3 landing zones on the green, about 6 feet apart in a line. Name them Zone 1 (close), Zone 2 (middle), Zone 3 (far).

Put 2 piles of 18 balls each, 5–20 yards away from the green, in deep or thick grass.

Hit 36 flop shots from these piles, trying to land the ball in the zones.

Hit 12 shots to Zone

Alternate piles if wanted.
