The long distance bunker shot is one of the most difficult shots to master. If you don’t need to fly the ball all the way to the hole, consider using a lower lofted club (PW here) in place of your high-lofted wedge. The lower loft enables you to flight the ball lower and glide through the sand more easily. It reduces the chance of chunks or thins, and gives you a more forgiving result in the event you do miss the shot slightly. #golfinstruction #golfcoach #lonniepoole #sandsave #raleighgolf #triangle #golfnc #pga #ncstate
