Nathalie Filler Sheehan breaks down a misconception about greenside bunker play. Get comfortable hitting the sand much closer to the ball to start hitting sand shots that check up on command.

Hitting closer to the ball, as opposed to an inch or two behind, seems contradictory to what some of the other Golfpass coaches have said. I guess it's a matter of preference.
Hi Nathalie.
Thanks for this advise on the steeper attack. What about when in different sand bunkers, with coarse sand or wet sand or very soft fine sand? Or longer distance to carry ball to the pin? Please expand, thanks. Cheers!
Hi Nathalie,
Which club are you using? What about hitting out of wet sand? Same club? Same technique?
Thanks! Dave
Hi Nathalie,
In the bunker, what do you do to change the distance you want to hit the ball? Close the clubface, shallower angle, swing harder, a combination? Thanks!
