Details
The Contour Game made it’s first appearance at our last competition, it was a success so it’s back for the British Open. If you played last time check out the example below to see what’s changed.
Contour practice.
You’ll see a small map. On it will be a purple line arrow. You then have 4 height profile diagrams. You need to pick which one matches the purple line on the map.

In this example ‘D’ is the correct answer.

At the end, you’ll be ranked by the number of points you get.
Ready to play?
You’re off to the Trossachs. One of Britain’s toughest (and best!) areas where even elite competitors struggle to get under 10mins/km. So with all those contours what a perfect place to take The Contour Game!
