On the green, make 4 quadrants using string or tees, each about 6 feet in radius.

Hit 36 chip shots in total, 9 to each quadrant.

Start at any ball line and chip 9 balls, aiming for Quadrant

Move to the next line and chip 9 balls to Quadrant

Do the same for Quadrants 3 and 4, 9 balls each.

Count each ball that stops in the target quadrant.

Add up the number of successful shots and enter the total out of 36 attempts.

Set up three landing zones on the green in a line, 6 feet apart.

Make three piles of 12 balls each at the edge of the green.

Use the first pile to chip balls into the first landing zone, 12 shots.

Use the second pile to chip balls into the second landing zone, 12 shots.

Use the third pile to chip balls into the third landing zone, 12 shots. Count how many balls land and stay in each zone.

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

Make 10 piles of balls, in 2 lines with 5 piles in each line. Space the lines 5 to 10 yards or meters apart, and piles in each line about 4 yards or meters apart.

Place piles between 5 and 30 yards or meters from the hole, but not on the green.

On the green, mark 9 stop zones using buckets, string, or tees. Put them in a clear 3 by 3 layout.

Hit 36 chip shots, in 9 groups of 4 shots each.

For each group of 4 shots, pick one stop zone to aim at and chip 4 balls towards it from any pile.

Repeat until 4 shots have been aimed at each of the 9 stop zones, making 36 shots in all.

Count only shots that stop inside their chosen stop zone.

Enter the number of successful shots out of 36 in the app.

Set up 36 balls in 2 lines of 18 balls each, 5 to 10 yards apart, on grass 5 to 20 yards from the hole.

Mark 9 stop zones in a 3 x 3 grid on the green, spaced apart so the zones are clear.

Chip 4 balls to each stop zone, alternating between the two lines. For each zone, hit 2 balls from one line, then 2 from the other.

Keep doing this until you have hit 4 balls for each zone, for a total of 36 shots.

Count a shot as a success only if the ball stops in the right zone.

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

Set up 10 piles of 4 balls each in two rows (5 piles per row), spaced 2 yards/meters apart. Put the rows 5 to 10 yards/meters apart and place the piles 5 to 30 yards/meters from the hole.

Mark 9 stop zones on the green using buckets, string, or tees. Space them out so each zone is different.

Prepare to hit 36 chip shots, divided into 9 groups of 4 shots. Each group targets a different stop zone.

From any pile, hit 4 shots at the first stop zone. Move to the next stop zone and hit 4 shots at it. Keep going until you’ve aimed 4 shots at each of the 9 zones.

Count every ball that stops inside the right zone as a success.

When done, count up all successful stops out of 36 attempts and enter the score in the app.
