Simple Bunker Shot For Beginners

Golf Sidekick demonstrates a simple bunker method for beginners by converting a toe-down chipping setup into bunker play. By standing close to the ball with the club heel slightly raised, golfers can easily scoop shallow sand 1 inch behind the ball with a full follow-through.

• Stand close to the ball with the club's toe down and heel slightly elevated.
• Target entry into the sand very shallowly, about 1 inch behind the ball.
• Rotate completely through the shot to prevent quitting on the swing in the sand.
