This is great stuff - just getting the ball out of any type of sand is massively valuable - and the fact you don't need any speed gives you way more control. Brilliant.
Love it. Having any guarantee in golf is impossible but golfing-by-numbers when you are frazzled is epic. What to do when you don't know or feel what to do. 👏
Yesterday, i tried this out. It was perfect. Just like you described. The ball landed a bit past the pin and rolled back a yard or so. Usually i get very tense and flounder in the ssnd.
I like that it’s similar to the chipping technique. I actually have less of a problem with more sand…but I have had a lie in a bunker where I tried to do a shot like this and when I hit the “sand” the bounce literally skidded the club’s blade edge right into the back of the ball. You can imagine what happened after that. LOL. Thanks for this Coach! Loving it…
Have lost all confidence lately in bunkers from previously been pretty good. Tried this and was sooooo good. Thanks now I have a stock shot to work from and hopefully the scores will come back down.
Thanks a lot for this tip, it's great, Coach! I agree that this sounds similar to chipping as it is not about steepening up any angles, but it is the opposite: shallowing. By the way I found this to be working for me 2 months ago and it is really effortless and stressless
Awesome Coach! I’ve been pretty good at bunker shots for a long time but lately I’ve struggled. The practice bunker at my club sux! I’m going to practice this technique and look forward to see how it works. Have you changed your philosophy in the last couple of years?
Great video. I'm useless in the bunkers so looking forward to giving it a try. Just subscribed, been watching you for ages with Mark and only just realised I hadn't subscribed to your channel 🤦♂️
Thanks Matt, I'll certainly give it a try. Not so sure of this technique from a pot bunker or a steep face? From that bunker and lie I'd be playing a chip shot taking the ball first. If it was compacted, then definitely a chip shot.
Great sock game Coach. You’re not looking like a substitute teacher. Unlike Mr Crossfield in one his recent video. His socks were like a couple of skyscrapers, your socks are more like a couple of commission homes. Nice one Coach🤘🏻🇦🇺 #NoDadSocksForCoach
