Question: How Can I Stop Taking Too Much Sand on Bunker Shots?
Answer: Gary's Quick Tip:

Great players all understand the importance of the sand wedge. If you're digging too deep into the sand, here's a key.

When setting up for your shot, open the clubface of the wedge first, and then take your grip. This will help you take shallow divots, which will help your consistency in the sand.
