So you may well have mastered the standard greenside bunker shots, but one of the most challenging ones is when you've got that longer bunker shot. Where the flags at the back of the green is forty fifty yards away you need that ball to run out a little bit more and one of the difficult things people try to do. They try to mount and hit it a bit harder hit it a bit softer and it really makes that attack very random. There's one simple way you can learn to play these which you'll have a lot more success with all you need to do is get rid of you sand wedge and don't be afraid of using your other clubs in the bunker. You can use your pitching wedge or your nine iron or your gap wedge this club has got less loft on it less angle. So when that ball is struck with this straighter face club is going to send it out on a lower trajectory physics is going to do the work for you and make the shot a lot easier to play.

Another little trick is just adjusting your set up slightly if you place the ball slightly further back lean the shaft a little bit further forward again this is going to de-loft the golf club a little and assuming the lips not too high with this setup and this club selection when you make the stroke the club is going to do all the work for you. The ball's going to come out lower run a lot more make the shot selection and the choice of club selection so much easier let's try that so shaft a little forward weight a little forward less loft on the club play it like a normal shot now the ball is just rolling out lovely towards the flag there.
