Prove you can get in the hole in just 6 putts, damn you.

You can bounce the ball up slightly (presumably the spin from rolling is modeled or approximated, and gives lift when hitting a bumper), which might be enough to skip from the tee to near the end of the course. Not sure that should be considered for "par" though. Took me 14.

It's possible. Done in 4.

Bounce it off the left wall in your first shot and you can land close to the end of the course.

I scored 5. Bank at max power at 5 o’clock from tee, the ball bounces over the wall and skips most of the course.

Thanks for the tip. Was 26. Now 4.

More specifically: aim back, and where the left side (as you now face) starts to ramp down there aim for the spot where it starts to slope down. Full power.

I have to wonder if they modded it because this doesn't seem possible anymore. Though I may be holding the putter wrong XD

I tried hitting the little floating island behind the start too to get a bounce but the ball clips through it.

What I did find was that you can use the purple spinning circle at the beginning as a teleporter to the one near the end if you aim at the wall opposite the spinner. Your ball will hit the wall and bounce back and up into the teleporter thing.

edit: I think the level changed?

There's a new course every day (like Wordle), so we were talking about yesterday's. It's still accessible from the archive / calendar button in the menu!

I'm pretty sure Mr Dev Man messed with the power levels after I played, though, because it absolutely wasn't doable when I first tried. Surely.

I made it in 3. Git gud.

It's possible to do it in 2 ;-)

edit LocalStorage and you can have whatever score you like
