January 19, 2007, Newsletter Issue #144: Reduced Back Swing For Fairway Bunker Shot

Tip of the Week

For successful fairway bunker contact, limit your back swing to 3/4 of its normal length, and then mirror it on the follow through. Because you are using such an abbreviated swing, take two more clubs for the distance you are approaching. If you have a good lie, choose that 5 instead of the 7 iron golf club.
