Fast and Low Bunker Shot

Problem

You have a 30 yard bunker shot and want to move the ball out quickly and to keep it low.

Cure

Plan the details of your shot before you set up to the ball. Stand behind the ball to look at the green and the lip of the bunker then decide where you want the ball to land and begin to roll.

Therapy

Use your 60 degree wedge. Open the face up pretty good and plan to enter the sand about an inch behind the ball. The key to this shot is to remember to follow thru the shot. This will help give the momentum you need to get the ball onto the green.
