3 Different Shots to Play From the Bunker #golfswing #golftips

So this line is to get it out. This is to get it out with control. And this is to get it out with spin. Let’s take a look at the first one. So this line now is about a club head behind the golf ball. I’m going to focus on hitting the front edge of the line. This gives me enough sand between the ball and the club face. It’s not going to spin very much. And we’re going to see the ball roll out a little bit more. Great for getting out, but you don’t quite have as much control. So you can see here I just hit the back of the line here. Actually a little bit early. Still got it out, but that ball is releasing now a little bit more. So there. Now I want to hit the front edge of this line. The the line is a little closer to the golf ball. This now will fly a little bit farther, but also it should stop a little bit quicker as well. Gives me that little bit more control because there’s less sand between the ball and the club face. Much softer on that one. That one’s definitely a little closer to this one. Maybe still a little bit early, but it still shows the importance of as that entry point gets closer, you get more and more control. Third and the final one. This is the scary one. I’m looking to hit now maybe the front edge of this line. Now, what this is going to do now, because there’s less sand between the club face and the ball, I’m going to get a lot more friction. That ball’s going to fly further and actually spin a little bit more. Not for the faint-hearted, little bit more risky, but let’s give it a shot. Okay, I caught that one just a little too clean. And you can see here on this one, it just entered in just as on that front of that line. This is a great experiment for you to find out where your entry point is and give you a little bit more control out the bunkers.

Most golfers can get the ball out of the bunker — but not with the control they want.
This video shows you three bunker shot levels: get it out, get it controlled, and get it spinning.
It all comes down to your entry point — where the club first enters the sand.
Start experimenting with how close to the ball you strike the sand to control spin, rollout, and stopping power.
