Looks like you were a little off-balance at the top
Great tips from the bunker. I have issues in hard packer bunkers and seem to hit thin shots all the time. Any advice with hard packed sand ? I hv thought about playing it like a tight lie in front of green n this has helped but not 100% proof
Love your instruction Clay. You explain things very simply and make it easy to go out and replicate. Keep up the good work.
I think Clay Ballard is a terrific teacher. He makes learning golf fun and explains the "why" of things. He often has drills and that really helps. Simple & concise teaching instructions.
I love the lesson, but have a question. I live in Florida which is prone to rain of course and leads to compact bunkers. How do I execute a shot from a compacted bunker with wet sand? Swing harder? Try to pick it out like a chip shot from wet grass (also a video in this series)?
