The 100-Degree Rotation
After every putt, move 100° counter-clockwise. Distance cycle: 2→3→4→5 putter lengths, then repeat.
Every putt = different break, slope, and approach angle. True randomization from a simple rule. After 20 putts you have covered the full green.
Scoring — All Levels
Past hole, within 1 putter length
Par (0)
Short, or more than 1 putter length past
Bogey (+1)
Speed Philosophy
Short putts never go in. Scoring explicitly penalizes short misses. Good speed (past the hole, within 1 putter length) is rewarded with Par — the same as holing the putt would be if you were on tour.
Challenge Levels — Score Targets
Same distances apply at all levels. Only the target score changes.
