Physics, not feelings: The tee drill that ends bunker fear
On day one of golf school, I hand everyone a notepad and ask them to write down three things that terrify them on the course. Bunker shots make the list almost every time. Here’s what I tell them: it’s physics, not feelings.
Once you understand what the sand is actually doing, the fear disappears. So I hand them a tee. Not to hit off of. To break in half.
There’s a reason, and it changes how you see every bunker shot you’ll ever hit.— Martin Chuck
