Have you noticed a change in how Tour pros hit bunker shots these days? It looks a little different from the conventional approach that was taught for decades. So what is the technique? Why does it work? Is it better? In this Film Study, Luke Kerr-Dineen breaks down the modern bunker trend and why it's becoming more and more prevalent.

Their bunkers are perfect and totally consistent. The ones we play suck.

For years I've been wanting some coach / youtube channel to do a municipal bunker tutorial It's like hitting out of hard dirt. And after it rains, it's mud 😂

@CanadianBiPolarBear 6 дней назад

Yeah inconsistant types of sand and amounts of sand in every bunker

@MarkMyWordsXx 5 дней назад

You guys are right, that's the difference between us and pros

@finnobrien7604 5 дней назад

@@Tom_Swift for very firm bunkers with less sand, you have to take a wedge with less bounce and get very steep.

@@MarkMyWordsXx it makes a huge difference hitting out of good bunkers, good grass, etc.

My trick to being better in the sand is to play courses that don't have concrete for bunkers.......

What strategy do they use to play out of bunkers with no sand in them like we deal with a public courses?

@warriorkidd5 5 дней назад

low bounce wedge, or drop your hands / the heel if the wedge which lowers bounce more and allows it to dig. practice it to get the feel of how hard u need to swing for different distances

@harrisonrands1594 6 дней назад

Cool now tell me how to stop thinning it into the next time zone

@go4jackson 5 дней назад

Stay committed to the shot! By that I mean keep the body down through the contact with the ball and only release the upper body once you've completely swung through the ball. I release too early to and rush into my follow through to avoid getting stuck too far back and thin it like this as well. Hope this helps!

For the last four years bunker shots have been my best shot. The last 3 weeks it's been my worst. Fn golf man

@John-yj7io 3 дня назад

Just use the toe of the club, keeping the heel or hosel out of the sand. The hosel is what catches the sand. But still use a steep swing, hitting the sand behind the ball. Try it. It works like magic for me.

Go do a search for Faldo and bunker tips. Pretty much exactly his technique. He's been around a while. New trend, eh?

@fairwayfreunde 4 дня назад

I still dont get why I have to open the clubface in the bunker

@marvfj6451 8 часов назад

The conventional wisdom is that opening the face helps golfers avoid the club digging into the sand rather than gliding through it. 😊

@sa_maccas2266 4 дня назад

Try this at your local Course and youll be hitting in 50 yards over the green

@alcw625 5 дней назад

Public golf courses have crappy bunkers and there’s no place to practice bunker shots

@poocrayon4588 2 дня назад

just hit the slice method, it's easy as. And you dont have to squat low perfectly and look like a fool. Clubs are getting too easy - should have brought in standardisation a long time ago for the pro regarding wedges and lofts.

@danmyers9372 5 дней назад

That’s fine if the bunkers on your course actually have sand. The muni courses many of us play have a thin layer of sandy dirt on top of hardpan. Try playing out of these with an open club face or worse yet a wedge with lots of bounce.
