Plugged

Post by LinksPro »

Looking for suggestions on how you get out of greenside bunkers when the ball is plugged. I have tried a bunch of different shots. Sometimes they work and sometimes they don't. How do you do it?
If it goes left, its a hook. If it goes right, its a slice. If it goes straight, its a miracle!

I would like to know too.

I'm lucky if I manage to get the ball out of the bunker...

I just take two-three clubs more depending on green roll and hope for the best :)

EDIT: forgot to say I use RTS, might not be the same when clicking haha

Max out the meter with a splash. Use your smallest club (not the putter). You should be able to hit it 40 feet or so.

If distance to pin is in feet, I treat it as if yards and club accordingly - using a full shot if necessary. So if pin is 75ft away, I'd use a lob wedge full shot on full elevation. Won't work if plugged in sod high up the face or if lip is too close, obviously. Should roll out somewhere near depending on green softness/stimp. There seems to be a limit though - maybe PW? I use RTS though, so maybe different.

I was always told to hit the ball late on the bottom. (Thin)

I use PW, high Blue, top and "six" and get about 35 feet from that shot - longer distance needed, I go past the top - long shot needed, go to 9 iron

spray & pray (aka fire & forget). 3x dist and 120% seems to render the best (...) results if such a classification is viable.
