Me and My Golf instructors demonstrate a simple yet effective bunker drill to improve strike consistency. By drawing a line in the sand and focusing on hitting the front edge, golfers can dial in their entry point for better spin and predictable distance control.
Draw a line one clubhead width behind your intended ball position to visualize the entry point.
Practice hitting the front edge of the line without a ball to train the bottom of your swing.
The goal is to avoid hitting the ground too early, which leads to weak or chunked bunker shots.
Once consistent, place balls in front of the line and focus only on the entry point to splash the ball out.
Proper entry point control is the secret to generating high spin and stopping the ball quickly.
