Carry or Lay-Up Challenge
Choose whether to carry an imaginary hazard or lay up based on your real carry distance, target window, and confidence. Make the decision before each ball, hit one shot, then compare the choice with the actual result.
Difficulty levels
Setup & execution
Treat each scenario like a course-management choice, not a distance contest. Record your real normal carry, the carry/lay-up decision, confidence, and the actual result from one ball.
Goal
Score 14 or better by matching the decision to your carry margin and avoiding overconfident penalty attempts.
Tour context
Experienced players should eliminate hero shots. The correct answer may still be lay-up when the expected penalty cost outweighs the gain from carrying the hazard.
Scoring options
Pick how you are rewarded. Each option records different outcomes and feeds different insights.
Good Decision Rate
The decision is scored, not the result. Only bravado costs.

Course ManagementFairway Decision Ladder
Compare your driver against a safer tee club across wide, standard and narrow fairway corridors — from 15 to 50 yd depending on difficulty. Hit five shots with each club at every width, then see which club finds more fairways and learn when the driver's extra distance is worth the added dispersion.
Course ManagementNegative Self-Talk Counter
Track every moment of negative self-talk during a round. The goal is to recognise unhelpful thoughts early, reset quickly and gradually reduce their frequency.
