Something to practise

Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Make the next step deliberately.

What the game asks you to do

Sink all three holes within twelve strokes per hole. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. The example below illustrates a decision.

Step by step

  1. Aim a stopped ball.
  2. Set power and putt.
  3. Wait until it stops before another shot.
  4. Use Next hole after sinking.

How to use the controls

Touch aim, angle/power sliders and Putt. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.

Learn from a sample situation

A soft final putt can sink where a fast crossing would not. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Choose a deliberate next step.

Watch out for this

The hole accepts only a sufficiently slow ball. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow.
