How to hit out of the Bunker

Hitting out of the sand, also known as a bunker shot, requires a specific technique to ensure a successful shot. Here are the basic steps to help you hit out of the sand effectively:

  1. Select the Right Club: Choose a sand wedge or a lob wedge for bunker shots. These clubs are designed with a higher loft, which helps to get the ball out of the sand and onto the green more easily.

  2. Open Your Stance and Clubface: Position your feet slightly wider than shoulder-width apart with your front foot flared open towards the target. Open the clubface by aiming it slightly to the right (for right-handed players) of the target.

  3. Dig Your Feet In: Sink your feet into the sand to stabilize your stance. This will provide a solid base for your swing and prevent your feet from slipping during the shot.

  4. Focus on the Sand Behind the Ball: Unlike shots from the fairway or rough, you want to hit the sand first when hitting from a bunker. Aim to strike the sand about 1-2 inches behind the ball. Visualize a spot in the sand where you want the club to make contact.

COBRA at 50: An OEM at the Crossroads

It’s hard to think of COBRA as 50 years old. After all, if you were alive in 1973, it’s hard to really wrap your head around the fact that it was 50 years ago.

Australian émigré Tom Crow launched COBRA Golf in San Diego in ’73 and, according to company lore, his goal was simple: Make great golf clubs for regular people at a fair price.

You can make a solid case that COBRA has done just that for the past half-century. And while it’s definitely the little brother in golf’s Big Five, COBRA’s legacy of real innovation rivals that of anyone in the business.

But the question facing COBRA at 50 is as stark as it is simple: Can the company be innovative enough to stay relevant enough in a harsh, unforgiving industry to make it another 50 years?

And can it deliver its message to the masses simply and in a way that will grab theirattention?
