Typical stress situations that everyone knows - the shot from the bunker!

Hitting the bunker can instil fear. The mere thought of hitting the sand can create a stressful situation. But remember that there is no room for fear in your mental space. You need to face this feeling with training and confidence. My advice is to learn a standard bunker shot that will help you get the ball on the green with your first shot at least 90% of the time.

It may be tempting to try magic tricks to get out of the bunker. But don't be tempted. The key to successful bunker play is simplicity and reliability. Your goal is to get out of the bunker, and if you can do this regularly, your mental strength in the bunker will grow.

Trust your club! As a tip: I like to use a wedge with 58 degrees of loft in the bunker.
