im not sure if theres an older thread regarding bunkers, but i know i'm not the only one with questions as far as sand goes.
so when i first started playing golf, i was taught very few things about bunker shots.
1: open clubface
2: open stance
3: ball back in stance
4: hit about an inch of sand behind the ball.
it never really made sense to me. ive always thought a bunker shot was one of the hardest shots to make in golf and even for the easier shots there is no 1 way to do it. any opinions?
thank you everyone for all the input on drivers. any ideas as far as 3woods/hybrids go?
i actually got the chance to use my friends ft-3 a few days ago. his was heel weighted to avoid slices, 11*, and it had the adila nvs stock shaft.
although the extra heel weight helped me hit the ball straighter, the ball trajectory was still a little flat, even with the 11* loft.
i recently picked up my clubs again after a 6 or 7 month hiatus. before the break i had just bought some new irons and i was in the process of buying a new driver, & 3/5 woods but i never got around to it.
i was hoping to hear some ideas or suggestions of whats good out there these days. more specifically, any feedback on the r7 425 vs the 905R.
i was also thinking of dropping the 5 wood from my bag and going with some sort of rescue or hybrid club.
currently my bag consists of:
driver: 975jvs
3/5 wood: taylormade steel; the model before vsteel.
irons 4-pw: titleist 690cb steel shafts
sw: 456 vokey 56, 60.
putter: scotty cameron newport 2
ball: prov1/hx
i know its not a very detailed description of the bag, but i figure its enough to give an idea.
