Long putting for distance<br />

Short Putt<br />

Place a tee at each of the driver length distances to indicate the starting place. Remove the flagstick and then putt for the<br />

cup. Score the number of balls that go into the cup. (Refer to diagram below)<br />

Long Putt<br />

Place a tee for the target area at each of the ends of a 25-foot distance. Putt 10 balls from one tee area toward the other<br />

tee or target area, and measure the shots with your putter. Any part of the ball inside the grip counts one point (see<br />

diagram).<br />
