The Skills Challenge Game Mode challenges your accuracy with a single target, straight ahead, at increasing distance from the tee, earning points based on the rings around the target to get the highest score and win. The most points after 10 shots wins.

In Skills Challenge, the target increases in distance away from the tee every two shots, getting further and further down-range - 10 shots in total to get the highest score. The closer you are to the middle of the target the more points you earn - the outer orange circle is worth 2 points, in middle red ring is worth 5 points, and the inner ring earns you 10 points. In-game, a label will also be shown above the target to indicate your distance away from the pin.

Difficulty

Skills Challenge has three difficulty levels where selecting a higher difficulty increases the distance away from the tee that the target will reach:

  • Easy with targets up to 114 meters away from the tee
  • Medium with targets up to 183 meters away from the tee
  • Hard with the extra challenge of shaping the shots through goalposts.

You should use the easy difficulty for new and young golfers, medium for improving and experienced golfers, and hard for advanced golfers. After you're comfortable with the distances of your chosen difficulty, you should move up to the next difficulty for your next challenge.

Selecting Hard difficulty adds an additional layer to the challenge by requiring that your shot passes through a yellow Y-shaped goal post. On this difficulty, shots that don't pass through the goal won't count - even if you land your shot on-target.

Scores & Personal Bests

Your previous shots' scores will be listed in the top-left corner of the screen, under your name when its your turn to hit. Your all-time personal best for each target will also feature at the top of the screen during your turn. If your session has added players, you'll also see a list of all players' scores alongside their name in the top-right corner of the screen.

Change Player

When playing with multiple players each player will take turns during the Skills Challenge session with their attempts, hitting two consecutive shots each before switching, in the same order as the player list from the Main Menu. Each player will get a total points score for the session - to win, you'll need to earn more points than any of your opponents!

To add a new player, once already playing Skills Challenge, you'll need to return to the Main Menu screen, and press "Add Player" at the bottom of the screen. For more information on adding players and guests, see our Adding Players Guide.

Only one difficulty can be selected for all players, which cannot be changed after you've started a session.
