1)USE THE BOUNCE
-do not lean the handle toward the target at address
2)SET UP FOR SUCCESS
-ball position forward of center
-light grip pressure
-slightly open clubface and stance
-dig feet into the sand (weight 60% left)
3)WAYS TO GUARANTEE INCONSISTENCY
-tight grip pressure/arms/wrists
-ball position back in stance/ lean the handle forward
-short, low takeaway and/or a weight shift into the right leg on the backswing
4)GOOD SWING THOUGHTS
-splash the sand out of the bunker
-allow the clubhead to go up on the backswing/ a free wrist break
-long, relaxed swing
-finish facing the target
5)BEST DRILL
-draw 2 lines about a foot apart in the sand, make practice swings and check where your clubhead enters the sand. If your clubhead enters the sand between the 2 lines, place a ball on the line closest to the target. Make a swing , splash the sand out of the bunker and you've got it.
REMEMBER: NEVER hit the ball first!
