The book contains hundreds of shots, organized into Test Groups that check every area of your shooting and playing skills.
Each Test Group has four benefits:
- Skills Measurement - what you can do now.
- Self Knowledge - what you need to improve
- Training Program - develop a personalized process
- Buddy Challenges - competition with friends
INSTRUCTIONS
- For the Test Group table layouts, print out or display on your smart device.
- Use donuts to mark positions for all balls in the test group. (Donuts are paper reinforcement rings - get at any office supply.)
- Shoot a set (3 or 5 each) and write down the scores.
Scoring
Version 1 (3 shots per inning)
1 success in three = 1 point
2 successes in three = 2 points
3 successes in three = 5 points
Version 2 (5 shots per inning)
1 success in five = 1 point
2 successes in five = 2 points
3 successes in five = 4 points
4 successes in five = 6 points
5 successes in five = 10 points.
Challenge Your Buddies
After you test yourself, challenge a few buddies with some side bets - payout for high score, or race to 25 points. You can also handicap (i.e., race to 50: beginner - 20 points, intermediate - 10, good - 0.)
Like the game "Equal Offense", you can challenge players in other places (cities, states, countries). A referee can track scoring.
