The all important Sandshot and how to get the ball out more consistently and closer to the pin! |
The basic bunker shot requires you to splash the ball out of the sand. The sand actually propels the ball out of the sand bunker. This type of shot is played best with a 56 degree sandwedge which has a good bounce and allows you to cut a large saucer shape of sand out from under the ball.
Step #1 is to open your clubface a quarter turn and then take your grip this will have the clubface pointing a little to the right (opposite for left-handers). Trust your clubface loft and if you have longer distance to travel then open your clubface a little less and take a little less sand behind the ball.

Some Hockey Pool tips from Lance |
 I should warn you right now that I hold a 1 - 36 record in thirty seven pools in my lifetime. And just in case my wife reads this I won't even tell you how muc h money I've lost. Safe to say that it is a significant amount.
Nonetheless, I will dispense some slightly different hockey pool advice to compliment the stuff you will read in the magazines.
So go get a magazine. The most beneficial mags for pools are the ones that actually provide pick lists. They will give you a list of this years players in order of predicted points. These lists are essential for every poolie. Don't buy the yearbooks; they are a lot of money and just report on last year. You want a mag that "forecasts" next year. McKeen's Draft Guide, Hockey News Ultimate and the Score's Forecaster are three of the best. These magazines will give you lots of advice on sleepers, up and comers, guys to be aware of and all that stuff. Buy at least one, it is critical to have some sort of a reference.

to develop more precision putting and reduce your over-all putts per round.
