So if you are going to be successful out of bunkers shots and green side bunkers you actually need to know how much sand to take and how much force to hit it with. We all know that these are explosions shots or splash shots and people will say “I'll hit two inches behind the ball and so on” but how deep should you go how hard should you hit these are all real keys. So once you put your correct set up make sure that you hold the club head above the contact point. A lot of people make the mistake of hovering little over head really close to the ball all the way back if you hit it behind the ball you're going to get too much sand between the ball and the club face is going to act as a buffer and the ball's not going to get out.

We want a little cushion of sand between the ball and the club face but not too much. The other big mistake people make is they bury club into the floor this really takes too much sand. So we're trying to take the top off the sand if you like take a little sliver of sand it's almost about a shoe print or a foot prints worth of sand is what you would trace and take when you're hitting the shot successfully. Remember the design of a sand wedge has got bounce on it you've got a back edge in the front edge a digger and a skidder want to use the skidding edge. So if you set up with the shaft nice and straight bridge that to work. So think of it as splashing the top off the sand rather than burying it that's going to help the club go through with enough momentum and get that ball out let's give it a go. That's great just the right amount of sand and that just propped up nicely.
