How to escape hazards


HITTING the green or advancing your ball as close to it as possible from sand bunkers and wastelands is one of the most difficult shots in golf – and something most amateurs very rarely practice – if ever.

This shot places extra emphasis on ball striking because hitting just a couple of grains of sand before the ball could rob you of distance or leave you in the hazard.
