Green Side Great Escapes from Sand Traps

[JerryG]

City,
Did you manage to fill your shoes with sand at the range today? I am eager to see a report on how well you did with Yoda's instruction.
I had 3 bunker shots today and all three were of good distance, but just a tad off line leaving putts of a little over 4 feet. Lucky to make a couple of them. The rest of the game stunk, however.
We need to talk.

I lined up open, tried angled and vert hinges and also an open and regrip lob wedged. I drove the prim lever down fast through the hard sand! I spanked it reallll gouuuod! The gall really shoots up with an vertical or laid off hinge and it runs out with the angled hinge. Yoda was right. Slowing down is the kiss of death. Don't drag the hinge! Hit it like Godzilla does Tokyo!

my bunker play improved dramatically after watching AG last week. I would quote Lynn and VJ and highlight what they say - "This is not a delicate shot, really spank that sand"
