Overshooting Bunker Shot

Problem

You keep hitting the ball over the green when taking your bunker shots.

Cure

You might be hitting the sand too early because you are shifting your body weight back on your trailing side and leaving it there. You do not really need any weight shift for this shot, so try to try to keep all of your weight on your forward leg.

Therapy

Set up with most of your body weight on your front leg. Plan on entering the sand two or three inches behind the ball. Remember to turn back and through while keeping your weight on the target side of your body.
