And the medium and large holes are fairly larger than the size of a tennis ball. There are 5 small holes, 4 medium holes, and 1 large hole.

Probabilities
• In our game, 59 total shots were taken in 17 games. 4 of the 17 games made at least 2 of the 3 shots in a hole to be given 2 bonus shots. Out of the 59 shots that were taken, 3 were made in the small hole, 13 were made in the medium hole, 35 were made in the large hole, and 8 were completely missed cause they have bad hand-eye coordination.
