Golf Tip of the Month
 Know your bunker shot basics. Golfers often leave the ball in a bunker because they do not use good basic fundamentals to get the ball out of the sand. Set up with about 75 percent of your weight on your front foot and keep it there. Play the ball forward of center. Swing back and make a turn with your shoulders. If you do not turn back, you will simply swing with your arms and hands and you will not generate enough power to splash the ball out. Hold your hands still and do not hinge your wrists up and down during the swing. Say to yourself, "throw sand on the green." That should be your only thought once you know the basics. |
