A Bunker linked lie Isn’t the round destroyer you think it is. All what you need to do is generate one access and make contact with the sand as close to the ball as possible without hitting the ball first. Here’s how.
Start by staying a little closer to the ball than normal. This almost automatically makes your swing more vertical. As for the way you put the club, it changes, but if you are biased short (not too green to work with it), turn your face slightly open to adding some “softness” to the stroke. Position the ball in the middle of your stay.
As you start behind, you feel like your back is very hand, strong and tight. These are all steep elements. On the way back, unhinging actively wrists, but do so without moving your body center or to the target.
And don’t worry too much about your follow-up-your steep sand in the sand is all the power you need.
