- Bunker shots can be some of the most intimidating shots in golf for new and even experienced players. Getting stuck in a bunker can ruin a good round if you don't have a strategy for how to approach these shots. And the way PGA tour players approach these shots might not work for you if you can't match their swing speed. The good news is that there's a really simple way for amateur golfers to get out of the bunkers easily and hit perfect sand shots with a good setup and a few easy tips.

This is my favorite golf teaching channel. Not only do you explain how, but why. This is like a father son segment, where the father actually knows what he is talking about. Thank you for the help.
Ed is the "Golf Uncle" we wish we all had......cheers!
We got him
Best explanation for average golfer on how to play a bunker shot. Detailed explanation with demonstration by average golfer. Great job!
I’m a player for 62 years who took a lot of lessons in my first 32 years. At the tender age of 49, I learned the Natural Golf Swing of “Pipeline” Moe Norman resulting in a 30 year old handicap reduction of 20 to 12 and an invitation to teach this “new” golf swing. Been teaching the best method of swinging a golf club for the past 30 years. Somehow in all those years of taking and giving lessons, I never heard of bending the left arm to assure that I would swing through the sand more consistently. Never too old to catch on.
Well explained that no other coaches taught it before ever in my 14 yrs memories!! Most coaches if not all taught the PGA way stopping short of explaining why. And never the amateur one. Cannot wait to practice it. Bunker is a killer to me always. Cannot thank you enough. ❤❤❤😮
Merci Ed… you are making it EASY to understand…I love the way you deliver your teaching method and wisdom… you have completely changed my way of swinging the club and play the game…
MERCI BEAUCOUP from Montreal Québec
Excellent and extremely useful training video. Thanks for sharing your insights so generously.
Thanks sensei this method really work for me, 2 stroke save from bunker today
One of your best videos, yet. Even before the tip about the bent left arm, the video is great. Thank you!
Ed you have helped my golf game more then you could imagine. Thankyou !!!! I look forward to watching every video multiple times for reference. Your the best!!
Ed, thank you for sharing your experience and wisdom on bunker shots. You have had a wonderful career and how awesome to have learned from golfs greatest.. Really appreciate you.
Great video lesson!
Ed is the man!🏌️💪
Ed, Excellent video. Videos on trouble shots are welcome. Your expertise is a valuable resource. I think you offer the best golf videos I've seen. Thank you and best wishes!!! Mike King
We have a whole series on trouble shots coming soon!
I love this guy. He is so real and practical and, most importantly, useful.
Great I can't wait to try it 😊
Great instruction and I would certainly apply this technique as I have same problems, opening the face ... with bunker shots.
It all makes sense now, thank you for this video 👍
Love this. Excellent 👏👍
Awesome demonstration.
Unreal... I bow to you Sensei.. 😁
This is awesome!!!
Awesome!
When Pat hit that plugged at around 38 minutes it reminded me of how way back when if i had any sort of chip shot around the green and i was skulling everything that day …id switch to that chop shot from rough /fringe/ or very short fairway etc just to not fly it across to other side of green into a possible bunker… i havent used that chop shot that in many years , but i know i can always pull it out easily ..so great to see it works for a plugged trap shot too! Though most traps in my area are usually hard enouGh to never plug 😂
Wonderful video
I have always had a good short game, including pitch shots up to 90 yards. The one thing that was lacking, and I never knew why, was a consistent bunker shot. It never made sense why I could be a low handicap chipper and putter but fail to get out of bunkers! That is now all in the past 😀I had an extensive practice session in a bunker today (20 metres) and half my shots were within 1 metre and the worst was about 3.5 metres! Wow! Everything about this lesson is 100% correct and definitely works! Thanks Ed, you are the king!
Awesome! Glad to hear it was helpful
Wow top 5 bunker shot tips. So well explained. Great communicator
Glad you found it helpful!
20:00 You're hitting everything on the hosel because your feet are buried below the ball. Start with little chips out of the bunker and build in hinge from there. Gotta exorcize that mental block and just trust your posture and swing path in the bunkers.
I was hesitant to watch this video because the video was so long but I desperately needed to learn so I watched the whole thing. So happy I did. What a wonderful lesson. Thank you so much coach! Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I promise I won't share this with my friends 😅
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks!
Thanks for the support! Hope the videos are helping your game :)
Common sense golf in a very Professional manner! Without a doubt the best I have seen in my lifetime! I’m 75.
Bent left arm? Greatest bunker lesson EVER!!!
It is truly SO HELPFUL! I've been hitting perfect bunker shots over and over again ever since Ed taught me this lesson! -Patrick
Great tip! Bend the left arm at address in the bunker. Straighten lead arm on backswing and keep it straight thru the ball and , abracadabra you bottom out perfectly under the ball, every time. Eureka!
Patrick here - I’ve been using this tip ever since Ed showed me during the video and I have been amazed how much it has improved my bunker play. I was 2/2 perfect outs today!
I would love to see a similar video on shots out of green side rough, especially the lush fescue we have in the Midwest.
This is the best video in bunker play that I’ve ever watched!!!
That's a great topic! We will definitely be doing a lot more short game content
From the information given do you guys recommend a lob wedge 58 or 60 degree for shots like this over the sand wedge 54 or 56 with a high bounce. 90% of lob wedges in bounce are around 8. What brands do you recommend that have higher bounce for shots like this for beginners. I know you guys said the alien club but have had one and have found that club doesn't work well on harder dry turf conditions. Any suggestion is appreciated.
I recommend 56 degree high bounce on normal sand 60 low bounce on hard sand or wet sand
@@edschwent1630so glad you mentioned the 60 on harder traps … it seems most municipal courses in my area have most if not all traps that are mostly hard pan dirt with small layer of sand at best… learned most (short or sand trap )shots with a 60 paying no attention to the bounce …i recently grabbed a couple other wedges and settled on adding in same model sandwedge as my TaylorMade RAC OS irons just because the rest of the irons hit half decent …but i still use the 60 mostly and was hearing everywhere i shouldnt even have a 60 …not just once but a lot have mentioned to open a spotin my bag and use the 55 /sandwedge and remove the 60 … ive always had a 60 ,but was considering it but i kjow i can almost always hit that 60 * 35 yrds up to 75 with amd avergare of 60/65 yrds …it may not seem like much difference but the adjustment to using only the 55 would require more practice and changes imo …now uncle Ed inferred a 60 is useful in hard traps iam happy 😂
Oops you mention basically my comments point at the end 🤦🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️😜
GREAT VIDEO. Always fun to be first comment.
His club looks really up right. His contact would be better if he lowered the shaft. Also leaning shaft to far forward
I wish Ed was my next door neighbor and he likes cold beers
Can you do a video on fairway bunkers
Sure!
Too much talking for a UA-cam lesson, this lesson doesn't need to be almost 45 minutes long. I don't need to hear what "most golfers do" I just want to see the correct way to do it.
Yea but I like tto be entertained
Worst bunkers have pea gravel mixed in with the sand!
You will miss more by Fast-forwarding...not all sensai tips are visual
Just thought /realized …that no grounding the club in a trap rule must’ve came about because one guy was using “grounding the club “ as a way to compress the sand out of the way behind the ball way back when 😂… all others playing this guy realized it was handicapping them To have practiced and learned to “out” without clearing behind the ball …and a new rule was born 😜
An old friend of mine would end a story by saying “and parts of the story are true”.
He has too much inward shaft lean.
Hitting a 80 yard shot with a 56 is far?
Relative to swing speed
Depends on the golfer
I can’t ever get past the intro. 5 min in and they are still talking.
Cheat like the pros do. It’s a lot easier
Too long ..all talk . No action
Story of my life!
Know why you only have a few replies?? Because your video is 44 plus minutes. I didn't even watch! Do yourself a favor, anything more than 5 minutes is too long for this type video!
This is one of our most successful recent videos, thanks for the advice though :)
