That was very helpful. However, it is difficult to find any instruction on how to hit from a bunker when the sand is firm or even almost hard, after being wet. I really don't have a clue as to how to do this.

Ball position, balance, and bump hip toward target were new info for me. I'll definitely give it a go. I am still having difficulty with club-face impact position. I have been told the downswing and impact should be slightly angled down, rather than attempting to sweep the bowl off the deck?
