The 100ft Putt Challenge.

A hundred feet of putting green between you and the cup. Most miss. Some come close. Almost no one sinks it. Step up, pay your dollar, and try to do what nobody else can.

The setup

How it works.

A single dedicated lane on the course, a flagged target 100 feet away, and one shot per attempt. Sink it on camera and you're on the leaderboard.

Distance

100 feet

For reference, that's nearly the length of a tennis court. Roughly the length of a bowling lane and a half. Longer than most professional putts you'll see on TV.

Format

One putt, one shot

You pay, you putt, you walk away with bragging rights — or you don't. No mulligans, no "best of three." That's the whole point.

Equipment

Standard putter

We provide the putter and the ball. You provide the swing. No professional equipment, no special advantage — just you and the green.

Leaderboard

Closest-to-the-pin running

If nobody sinks it, the closest putt of the season takes the prize. Your shot gets measured and recorded — even your near misses count.

The prize

Sink it, win it.

When somebody actually drops the ball in the cup, we celebrate. Prizes vary by season and special tournaments, but they usually include:

  • Cash prizes for the seasonal hole-in-one
  • Free mini-golf for a year
  • Custom Oakley Greens merch and gear
  • Your photo on our wall of fame and a feature on our Instagram

During major tournaments (World Cup, March Madness, etc.) we run special-edition challenges with bigger prize pools and event-themed leaderboards.

The strategy

Tips from people who've almost made it.

Practice green

Roll a few first

Use the 9-hole practice green to get a feel for the speed of our turf. The Oakley Greens course rolls true — but everyone underestimates the speed on a 100ft putt.

Read it

Check the slope

The challenge lane has subtle break. Walk it. Read it. Most first-time attempts miss left because they don't account for the break.

Commit

Don't dial it in

Wimpy putts die at 80 feet. Hit it like you mean it. You'd rather roll past the cup than leave it 20 feet short.

Get coached

Ask at the desk

Our golf desk hosts have seen thousands of these. They'll tell you what's working today — what speed, what line. Free advice, usually accurate.
