Grooved Golf Swing Series:Be The Correct Height To Pass The Club Head Beneath The Ball In A Bunker
When you apply your practiced swing, your grooved golf swing, the one you have developed to play your
bunker shots, it is imperative that you think about what you are doing.
As I have said in previous
articles, one of the most important aspect of the bunker golf shot is that you keep your body absolutely
still when it comes to sideways movement and just swivel or turn your body as though you are in a
tube.
It is fatal to allow your body to deviate to the left (right handers).
You will never
get your club to pass deep to the ball if you sway to the left.
You will duff your shot.
So,
you need a very good, solid base when you take up your stance.
Your feet must not be in danger of
moving.
To achieve such a stance, dig and shuffle your feet into the sand so that you are now
standing a couple of inches below the surface of the bunker.
Now, this means that when you make
your swing, you will hit or dig a couple of inches below the ball which is far too deep.
Experiment
with your swing and see what happens. You will probably dig too deeply as stated.
However, if you
still are not able to pass our club head deeply enough beneath the ball.
All you have to do is band your
knees a little more more.
Then, if your new stance, a couple of inches below the surface of the
bunker, makes you dig too deeply, because it has moved your hands nearer to the ball, just move your
hands a little further down the shaft, towards the ground.
Practice to get the right amount of movement
down the shaft and then swing with confidence.
