Turn Tough Lies into Easy Pars

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 balls into 6 piles of 6 balls each around the chipping area, between 1 and 10 yards from the green, and 5 to 30 yards from the hole.

On the green, make two rings around the hole with string or tees: a small ring with a 6-foot radius and a bigger ring with a 15-foot radius.

Split your shots into two groups of

For the first 18 shots, try to land the ball inside the small ring (6-foot radius).

For the next 18 shots, try to land the ball inside the big ring but outside the small ring.

Hit one ball at a time from any pile. Do 18 shots for the first target, then do 18 shots for the second target.

Count every ball that stops inside the target ring as a success.

After all 36 shots, add up how many landed in the right rings and enter your score in the app, out of 36 attempts.

Get 36 balls. Split them into 3 piles of 12 balls.

Make 3 zones on the green with sticks or string. Each zone is 6 feet apart in a line.

On the grass, put each pile of balls at random spots 1 to 10 yards from the green and 5 to 30 yards from the hole. Each pile matches a zone.

Hit 12 shots from the first pile, try to land in the first zone.

Hit 12 shots from the second pile, try to land in the second zone.

Hit 12 shots from the last pile, try to land in the third zone.

Count how many balls land and stop in each zone.

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

Set up 3 targets on the green in a straight line, about 6 feet apart.

Hit 36 bump-and-run shots, 12 to each target.

Place the ball in thick grass, 5 to 20 yards from the hole, and keep setup the same for every shot.
