Bryson DeChambeau says this is the ‘most important thing’ on bunker shots
Bryson DeChambeau, a rising star on the PGA Tour, recently revealed what he believes to be the “most important thing” for successful bunker shots: hitting the sand behind the ball.
DeChambeau stresses the significance of contacting the sand about two inches behind the ball. This allows for the club to slide under the ball and “pop” it out of the bunker. The goal is to create a clean, crisp strike that propels the ball high and soft, allowing it to land on the green with ample spin.
DeChambeau’s technique, which he developed through countless hours of practice, has proven highly effective. It has helped him secure several victories and establish himself as one of the game’s most promising young players.
