Spring is almost here; it’s time to sharpen your golf technique! One of the hardest shots to conquer in golf is a fairway bunker shot that is approximately 40 to 50 yards away from the green. This week, Gary Miller, our head golf professional, is offering some advice on how to attack this particular shot.

The trick to this shot is adjusting your normal bunker swing in order to get the ball further to the green. Although keeping your trusty bunker skills close is a smart move, you will want to use your 9-iron instead of your sand wedge in order to move the sand faster and farther.

When taking this fairway bunker shot be sure to turn through the shot like you would with an iron on the fairway; be sure you don’t dig your feet in the sand so you can better do this. Narrow your stance and make a full swing and a full release after you make contact with the ball. By keeping a narrow stance, you will produce a shallower divot and get the ball moving faster towards your target.

One of the most important things you can do in a shot like this is to make sure you produce a full finish; keep everything moving – your body, your arms and your club. Your stance is also critical in this shot. Be sure to keep it narrow, and because you won’t have a solid stance, keep your feet grounded as best as you can.

Head to The Oaks today to practice your fairway bunker shot for this upcoming golf season!
