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.

Set up two lines of balls next to the green on a slope. Each line has 18 balls, 5 yards apart, between 5 and 30 yards from the hole.

One line has balls above foot level, the other line has balls below foot level.

There are two groups: 18 shots from balls above feet, and 18 shots from balls below feet.

For each group, hit every third ball in the line until you hit all

Aim each shot to land and stop in a target zone on the green, 5 to 10 yards from the hole.

First, hit all 18 balls from above feet, then all 18 from below feet.

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

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

Make two piles of 18 balls: one on an uphill slope, one on a downhill slope, both between 0 and 5 yards from the green.

Mark three target zones on the green’s edge at 3 feet, 6 feet, and 9 feet from where the ball should land.

Split the 36 shots into 3 groups of 12 shots: 12 at the closest zone, 12 at the middle zone, and 12 at the farthest zone.

From the uphill pile, hit 6 shots to the closest zone, then 6 shots to the middle zone.

From the downhill pile, hit 6 shots to the farthest zone, then 6 shots to the closest zone.

Repeat as needed until all 36 shots are done: 12 to each zone using both piles.

Count the shots that stop inside the correct zone.

After all 36 shots, enter the number of successful shots in the app out of 36 attempts.
