The Greenside Bunker Shot

This is the only shot in golf where the golfer purposely aims to strike the sand first not the ball.
Maintaining the correct set up position is the key to escaping the sand.

		Note the width of stance when playing the greenside bunker shot is wider than normal- this helps to stay stable

		Ball position is forward in stance

		Feet aim left of target

		Clubface is open and pointing down target line

		Weight is slightly leaning towards the leading leg

		Hold the club above the sand at a point approximately 2 inches behind the ball

		Make a controlled backswing only half to three quarter backswing is needed in greenside bunker shots

		Commit to your follow through
		Remember to hold the club above the sand before you make your swing. Touching the sand before you swing back is a 2 stroke penalty
