In this tip, Martin Chuck demonstrates two shot types that could help you escape a tight, sandy lie around the green. The low runner and the explosion shot are great options from this difficult position.

My toughest shot is downhill, (side hill lie) over bunker and must land stopping on sloping away green. HELP!
Need guidance. 40 to 30 yards.
Martin I’m playing at Diamante in Mexico this week and my second shot went into the waste area about 40 yards from green. There is a hill with little shrubs in way. tried to hit the ball with my 54 degree wedge like a bunker shot, but it only went about 20 yards. What should do?
Good info! Off topic... how do you play from pine straw?
Martin, on tight lies like you show here, when you need loft to get over a hazard, etc., the ground is too hard to take a divot...what is your best suggestion. Thanks, RBR
