Creative Commons License photo credit: star5112     Deceleration is one of the most common causes of missed bunker shots.    Decelerating,  causes the club to take too much sand because there is a lack of power in the forward swing.   In order to be a good bunker player, it is critical to have a positive attitude.

When  faced with a long bunker shot, simply do not make your backswing as steep as you ordinarily would.   Drive your arms and hands forward, allowing the club to sweep on a shallow path through the sand.   The ball will come out a little lower and run farther than a typical sand shot.

TIPS:   A)   Point knees forward.   B)   Keep weight on lead foot.   C)   Accelerate hard through the sand.   D)   Make a three-quarter length follow-through, for added control.
