Hitting Out of Sand Traps
|
|
To play a successful long shot from a fairway
sand trap you must pick the ball clean. This is accomplished
by a strong lower body move, not by scooping with the hands.
|
Green side bunker shots are easy, easy, easy, when the ball sits up.
Open the blade and retain one thought... pass the blade under the ball.
To extract the ball
from an indented (fried egg) lie, open the blade and your stance
even more.
|
|
To escape a buried lie, close the blade and close your stance. Drive
the toe of the club into the sand. The ball will come out hot and roll
a long way.
|
|
Don't
worry if the ball is near the lip. Just open the blade and
out it will pop. Lots of fun! |
