This week we have are going to help you master the bunkers with 3 keys to success. 

1. Contact the sand maximum of 2 inches behind the golf ball. 
2. Club swinging down and through the golf ball. 
3. Weight on your front foot at the address and 70% when you strike the sand. 

The reason people struggle with bunkers is they try too hard to get the ball out of the bunker (sounds strange but stay with me!). The idea of getting the ball up and out is the MAIN CAUSE for poor bunker play. As this leads to people leaning back and trying to scoop the ball out of the bunker, resulting in taking too much sand or the club bouncing off the sand and thinning the ball into the bunker face. Remember the sand sends the ball out of the bunker not the golf club. So we must strike down and through the sand. 

Consistently work in these 3 keys and your bunker play will become a strength and not weakness. 

Remember if you have struggled out of bunkers for a while it will take some practise to gain confidence with the new technique. It might be worth drawing a line in the sand, and only practise hitting this to build up confidence. 

If you can't hit the sand in the same spot time after time, it's going to be impossible to be consistent out of bunkers. If you have any questions or would like some one-to-one advice please don't hesitate to contact us.
