hmmm.....sounds like a slash down hard on the ball, i'm a little confused with the bounce though....i thought we are taught to use it, he seems to say not too. can i get a clearer pic from someone please? thanks
I am not the most qualified to answer, but I'll give it a try. I try to expose more bounce (open the face) in bunkers with deep, soft sand to prevent digging too deep . Conversely, in thin or very firm sand I setup with the face more square and minimize the exposed bounce. This lets you cut into the sand a little more. I also play all standard bunker shots with vertical hinging. IMO, you must read the sand (just like reading a green) properly to make the most effective use of bounce in a bunker.
The thing I found most intriguing was playing the ball back a little in the stance which seems to go counter to all the standard advice. I am definitely going to try that my next foray on the golf course.
