Bunker Shots Made EASY With This Technique

[@brendaporter457]

Unreal!! Every time I watch these guys, I learn something new.

[@elitegolfschools]

@@brendaporter457 fantastic! Made our day!!

[@adesjard10]

I've been a preset guy, but this idea of moving into the space feels so much more athletic. Awesome stuff!

[@elitegolfschools]

@@adesjard10 that’s fantastic! Keep us posted as you play with it!

Great Video Riley, has usual! Please do another for a longer bunker carry shot.

[@elitegolfschools]

@@ucanbreakpar fantastic! Will do!

Thank you so very much for all your videos - studying them really helped my game. (The way you teach is paramount for a guy like me, who needs things to be explained,,, why to do like this and that. Plus I was a total nerd years ago, reading Homer Kelley's "The Golfing Machine" - wow, with all the cross references...) I stopped playing about 10 years ago and picked it up again last summer. My bunker game was pretty ok then but now I struggle to get any ball out of the bunker. I went out to the golf course today for some bunker practice, thought this could help. It went fantastic - very helpful was thinking about advancing much to my lead side through the swing. This was in normal sand conditions - like maximum an inch of sand. Then I tried the same "system" in deeper sand - maybe 3". Ehrmmm, I buried the club each time... Almost. So, a video on bunker shots in deep sand would be nice. Once again - thank you so much for all your videos, /Dobromir "Dodo" Nalepa

@@dodonalepa9902 wonderful wonderful news and so happy that the video was able to tie some things together for you! Will definitely look to build out a video sometime in the future in regard to different mediums of sand 🙏🙏 Just so you are aware, our subscription model (X Factor) has a number of videos throughout the entire game AND we just built out an entire masterclass on short game that we will Be launching within the next month or so. Just wanted you to be aware 🙏🙏🙏 Keep us posted on your game!!

You guys are fun to watch and learn from. You have such a good time together, show great respect for each other and really enjoy sharing knowledge of your trade. For me this was very informative and I do struggle with my sand play. All I say if I tried this I see myself hitting the ball either ball or thinning it.

[@Chris_Traynor]

Such a great dicussion and well explained. I've just realised that I think what makes your channel uniquely brilliant is that we gain understanding and nuance arising from you discussing things rather than one person just saying 'do this because'. There are many sources that showcase discussions alone but without demonstration, or demonstration but without discussion. Great stuff!

[@elitegolfschools]

Thank you so much!! So happy that it meshes with you well! We truly want this to help people play better golf so if we cover something that you have questions on, please please ask!

[@adamphillips4194]

Great video would love to not only see more bunker videos but also insight into shots around the green to save those all important pars that keep the round going thanks guy once again excellent job

[@elitegolfschools]

@@adamphillips4194 fantastic! And we feel the same! Going to start building out more short game/putting for sure!

[@tomn5188]

Superb! Took these concepts to the course with great success. Thanks.

[@elitegolfschools]

@@tomn5188 that’s fantastic!! Keep us posted!!

[@LongNguyen-vb4ng]

Another awesome lesson, I tried it yesterday and holed out of the bunker and got up and down 2 out of 3 times. This bunker lesson has made allowed me to be more aggressive in to pin placements. Is there a follow up lesson for bunkers that do not have a lot of sand? Or is the technique the same but we do not open club face in hard pan lies? Thanks

[@elitegolfschools]

How awesome is that? Cheers to you and your success! Bunkers that do not have as much sand definitely requires a different approach to those shots, that's a video we would to make for you in the future!

[@TheGoodGadfly]

Any reservations to practicing the appropriate UD by putting the ball back in your stance?

[@elitegolfschools]

@@TheGoodGadfly only problem with that is you’ll tend to introduce leading edge which is a no no in pitching/bunker play. Rather error forward in stance 🙏

[@isaraindra7114]

Been waiting for this... 🙏❤️

[@elitegolfschools]

Right on!!!

[@mbj-y5f]

Thank you for this confidence builder map. Will it work for a long sixty plus bunker shot?

[@elitegolfschools]

@@mbj-y5f to clarify, 60 plus feel or 60 plus yards???

[@mbj-y5f]

60 plus yards

[@elitegolfschools]

@@mbj-y5f going to need ball first from 60+

[@mbj-y5f]

Thank you again

[@elitegolfschools]

@@mbj-y5f of course!

[@tonybarber420]

Can we or should we use this UD to extension for flop shots outside the bunker? Maybe you could do a vid comparing the 2 shots?

[@elitegolfschools]

@@tonybarber420 yes! Same concept! Literally the same shot 🙏❤️

[@jamesyeh5956]

Love the UD, wrist cupped and early release of the club. Totally what Short Game Chef talked about for sexy bunker play.

[@elitegolfschools]

Hahaha right?! And you've got to have sexy bunker play. Sure do like his stuff btw

[@chuckmcswain884]

How do you play very firm no sand bunker shot?

[@elitegolfschools]

@@chuckmcswain884 steeper aoa fo sho

[@markriley531]

Revelatory!! How do the maps of pelvis drop and arm adduction / abduction vary in bunker shots?

[@elitegolfschools]

Don't actually need drop in bunker play. Don't need as much tissue load in bunker play. I think if you watch this video accompanied with the distance wedge video that we put out around a month ago that the majority of the system for pitches, bunker, distance wedges will be explained

[@vantumpete]

Thought i understood sand shots-- now i am totally confused.

[@elitegolfschools]

@@vantumpete haha what are you confused about? Would love to help 🙏🙏
