00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,000
This bunker drill is pre-setting impact.

00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:06,000
So just like we were pre-setting the impact

00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:09,000
in the impact section of Layer 1,

00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:12,000
we're also going to pre-set impact with the bunker

00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:15,000
to get used to hitting the sand.

00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,000
It's often, if you struggle with bunkers,

00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,000
you typically struggle with one of two things.

00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:23,000
You struggle with either blade of shots

00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,000
or shots that get left in the bunker.

00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:29,000
That's going to be addressed in the troubleshooting video,

00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:33,000
but if you're the one who tends to air more towards the side

00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:36,000
of blading the ball, you're not going to feel very comfortable

00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:39,000
having the club in the sand to begin with.

00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:41,000
Okay, so you're always going to kind of be flinching

00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,000
because you're scared of hitting it really, really fact

00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,000
because your path is probably a little too shallow.

00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:49,000
So the videos or the drills pretty simple.

00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:52,000
To pre-set impact, you're going to get first

00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,000
and your good setup position.

00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,000
And then remember, the club is going to be entering

00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,000
the sand a couple inches behind the ball,

00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,000
that's two inches behind the ball.

00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,000
So what we're going to do is we're going to push the club down

00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,000
to inches behind the ball.

00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,000
You can actually smack the sand and kind of get the feeling

00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,000
of the club down under the ball like so.

00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,000
Now, in doing so, you also want to make sure

00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,000
that the shaft is pretty vertical.

00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:15,000
It's not leaning forward.

00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:16,000
Lean backward.

00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,000
We'll just make it go higher, but it's still okay.

00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,000
So shaft is pretty vertical just like so.

00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,000
And then what you would do is you would take your swing

00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,000
trying to get the club to come right back into that spot.

00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,000
So it just gives you a kind of a visual.

00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,000
Obviously, this is illegal to do on the course,

00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,000
but when you're practicing, we do lots of stuff

00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,000
to do illegal on the course like drawing lines

00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:38,000
and touching the sand.

00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:41,000
So, example, you kind of smack the sand like so.

00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:46,000
And then try to get the club to enter right back

00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,000
where it was and lucky enough I did it

00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,000
and hit a nice little bunker shot,

00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,000
a few feet away from the pin.

00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:57,000
So, it's a good visual for being able to feel that right arm

00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,000
fully lengthening, get into the sand.

00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,000
If your tendency is to kind of flinch through the bunkers,

00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,000
this is a great deal that'll help you with that.
