It's Saturday, so we all know a big puzzle is par for the course. Here on this range, we value birdies quite a bit. Hopefully one doesn't have to drive too hard to get on the green with this puzzle, though I did try to avoid rough patches when setting. I did leave the water hazards in though 😉
Today's GAPP is a Supersized Herugolf!
Rules: Move the circles vertically or horizontally at least once each so that each circle ends up stopping on an H (hole). A ball can go in an H with potential moves still available as long as it lands at the end of a full move. A circle’s first move must be in a straight line of the number of cells indicated by the number inside it, and each successive move must be one cell shorter than the previous. Circles’ paths may not cross themselves, each other, other circles, or other circles’ starting points. They also may not pass over an H without stopping on it, and may not ever stop on a cell with water but can pass over it.
We've covered Herugolf only once before in GAPP nearly a year and a half ago here
