Let’s crush this. 🏆 Here’s how to make this feel automatic.

Getting out of the bunker can be tricky, but with the right setup, you can make it easier. Start by ensuring your alignment is correct. Your feet, knees, hips, and shoulders should all be parallel to your target line. This alignment helps you square the clubface and hit the ball where you want it to go.

When you approach the shot, place the clubface down first, aiming it at your target. Then, position your feet in line with the clubface. Many players aim their clubface correctly but misalign their body, which can lead to inconsistent shots.

Remember to open the clubface slightly to add loft, and focus on making a smooth, controlled swing. Follow through to ensure you have good momentum out of the sand.
