Hack motion benchmark for bunker shot

I recently purchased a Hack Motion wrist sensor and found it very helpful for my full swing. I struggle a lot in the bunkers and I think the Hack motion would be very helpful in seeing what my wrists are doing in the swing especially at impact. I don't know though what a pro bunker swing looks like flexion/extension graph wise in the bunker and was hoping someone might be able to help me with that information. Attached is a screen shot of a decent bunker shot I made and it seems I should be more extended at impact. However on swings that show the club extending rapidly at impact I tend to skull them. It would be helpful if I knew what a good bunker graph looked like.

Good question. I'll ask around this week and I'll collect a few swings with my own bunker game. But I think one of the important pieces of information is that more extension causes you to skull them. That tells me that your body position is likely off or your arms are too swallow approaching impact. You might want to pair a face on video with your wrist graphs for a more complete picture. Happy Golfing, Tyler

Here are a few bunker shots I hit yesterday. These were about 15 yard shots with a high soft trajectory.
