Giving yourself a tap-in from the sand doesn’t only feel great, it will also impress your playing partners. And keeping your lower body quiet during bunker shots is a big part of hitting more shots like this.
Good bunker players often shuffle their feet in the sand as they set up to the ball. This is to establish a stable base. With a quieter lower body, you’re far more likely to maintain the ideal shaft angle. If your legs and footing are shifting around through your shot, it makes good impact a lot tougher to achieve.
With a stable base and less unnecessary lower-body movement, you’ll find it easier to swing through the ball and make more sand saves. Step into every bunker with quiet confidence.
