No Hero Shot Challenge
After every poor shot, choose a recovery option you could execute successfully at least seven times out of ten. Track safe recoveries, hero-shot attempts and resulting penalty strokes.
Difficulty levels
Setup & execution
After every poor shot, ask whether your intended recovery is a genuine 7-in-10 shot for you — not a shot you've pulled off once before. If it isn't, take the safer option: back to the fairway, under the branches instead of through the gap, short of the water instead of carrying it. At this level, most of your recovery decisions in a round should be safe ones.
Goal
Log more Safe Recoveries than Hero Shot Attempts across the round, and keep resulting penalty strokes to a minimum.
If you're standing over the shot rehearsing an excuse for why it might work, that's usually the sign it's a hero shot.
Scoring options
Pick how you are rewarded. Each option records different outcomes and feeds different insights.
Classic
A safe recovery scores. Only a penalty stroke costs you.
Recovery Discipline
Safe pays double; every hero attempt costs you.

Play 9 holes with a par-2 target per hole using only your short game, simulating decision-making pressure on every shot.
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.
