Before the game starts, the player has to look carefully at the [[stump|pegs]] before the [[butterfly|butterflies]] cover the tops. In order to win, the player must [[Ground Pound|hip-drop]] all the pegs with flat tops. Hip-dropping a peg with a pointy top injures the player and causes them to lose time. Sometimes, the butterflies do not cover the pegs completely, thus giving the player a better advantage.
