    Best quick lessons ever. Chris Ryan’s chipping lessons have been immediately tremendously impactful in saving strokes for me. Can’t wait to try these sand lessons. Very easy to follow the visual instruction.

    I have been playing bad golf for a couple of months - so I took two weeks off playing to study what I was doing wrong - I landed on your series "back to basics" and I cant explain enough how amazing you break down the key elements - I have summarized your points and the plan to go through them thoroughly before I touch a club again - and when I do I will start with getting my game right in the exact same order as your series and then get back to the course to play a round of golf - kudos Chris - Hope to meet you one day

    The face to face concept is pure gold, immediately solved my issue of thins or shanks! Played around with the length of backswing for different distances and used the same feel.... bloody lovely, thanks Chris!

    Really like your thoroughness on your bunker tips. Working at improving with that open face is challenging, but I'm determined. Going to use an alignment rod as you suggest. Knowing where the club enters and exists is definitely going to help me build my consistency. Thank you Chris.

    Hi Chris, is is possible you can do a similar video but with wet claggy sand, I as others really struggle with sand in bunkers on less top notch courses. Loved the series, thanks and keep them coming.

    Well done on the bunker instruction. Simple and easy to understand, and hopefully replicate on the course!

  • @joyceryder2895
    @joyceryder2895 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thankyou Chris. Hopefully this bunker lesson will help me. I have been playing over 40 years and bunker play was and still is my worst nightmare. I have had lessons from different pros' all telling me different things, so you can imagine my brain is quite mixed up. Off to the range tomorrow to try this out.

  • @garygregg8230
    @garygregg8230 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Chris, as a left handed golfer, it is very helpful when you describe your tips with "us" in mind. For example "shifting weight from the back leg to the front" verses, from your right leg to your left etc... Thanks, your tips are very helpful!

    excellent set of videos on short game Chris - I loved the bunker one - I had never appreciated how open the club needs to be. I loved the thought of throwing sand on either shoulder. So easy to remember.

    Thia might be the best bunker video I have seen. Also there is a practice accessory called Accu-Mat ...it is a special carpet where the grain shows your strike path,
    It should work great for the last drill that you described, I will test it out tomorrow. Thanks Chris.

    @TheMegansdad 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great details on handle position in bunker vs chipping position. So much great info condensed into a perfectly clear lesson. A lesson worthy of Master Class level even though you label it basics. Thank you.

  • @yuanyu4429
    @yuanyu4429 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Chris is the best TH-cam golf teacher. I picked up the game of golf quite well. Probably I have good sport mind and without Chris vids lessons I wouldn't able to improve so quick. Unfortunately I can't afford for lessons, I can see he don't mind help out golfers by sharing his techni. So why do people subscribe to another channel been signed with Titleist. Instead subscribe here, if your still struggling in your game. Then take lessons from this man. Wake up golfers techni wins over any yours $600 driver.

    Hi Chris, Great video, especially for us high handicappers who spend a lot of time in the bunkers!! Could you consider creating a teaching video in bunkers with wet, hard sand please? In the UK this is what most of them are like!

    Great video as always, best explanation of how to play a bunker shot that I've seen. I will try this out ASAP. I can get out most bunkers but the ball always comes out really low, so I struggle with deep or high lipped bunkers sometimes.

  • @mctayto1
    @mctayto1 6 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Another good vlog, I like the level of detail you go into. However, sadly our club for around 9-10 months of the year entering the sand so far behind the ball won't work as the sand isn't soft and fluffy like yours. Frequently our sand feels more like hitting from a path as it is so solid re quality of sand used and wetness.

    • @BrandonGoose
      @BrandonGoose 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Jack Tate its pritty much same technique, just different lofted club,hard bunkers you need a lob wedge with a lower bounce,sand wedge with higher bounce for the soft bunkers

    • @mctayto1
      @mctayto1 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I didn't suggest for a second that the technique was different simply the point of entry into the sand changes with the quality/firmness of sand. Greenside bunkers are strength of mine simply because I have spent so much time in them :( needless to say I am trying to change that.

  • @brucemilanigallieni6078
    @brucemilanigallieni6078 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you a great insight. As you correctly say, my heart sinks when I enter a bunker resulting in poor results. Now I see why. Thank you

  • @paulmontalto6287
    @paulmontalto6287 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    GREAT VID; unfortunately, every trap is different at a public course we play; however, when I play better courses where the sand is consistent, your lessons have improved my sand play tremendously. Thanks.

    • @ChrisRyanGolf
      @ChrisRyanGolf  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Paul, yes that is certainly an issue for many, varying types of sand, amounts, depths etc all make bunker shots that much harder 👍

  • @andrewforcier

  • @chrisi1920
    @chrisi1920 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great video Chris! Definitely need to practice this one and you've provided excellent instruction. I like the idea about 'no fear' approach shots, I leave a lot of balls short of the greens because I'm scared of the sand! Cheers.

    • @chrisi1920
      @chrisi1920 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Just tried the techniques here, bunkers are very wet, still have snow but the ball came out very nicely! For me, keeping the hands low using an open face and the 'face to face' swing pattern did the trick. No more bunker fear! Big thanks!!!

    @DownUnderOzzy 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Really appreciate the content and the detail. It's helping me to understand the technique. On your last shot you hit it right of where you were aiming, that got me thinking about why it did that. Could you do a series of videos where you hit shots that end up not as expected and an analysis of why. It would help me to understand and correct poor shots.

    Chris, like the prior comment , how about a firm and wet sand. The club just bounces of the firm and wet sand.

  • @tonymiddlehurst8438
    @tonymiddlehurst8438 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    My pro teaches a neutral (ie chipping) club position but three lessons later I''m still no nearer to getting the ball out that way so I guess I'll try this method, I may as well as nothing else works for me. Currently losing loads of shots through having to lay up short of greens all the time.

  • @bobcarter4343
    @bobcarter4343 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    excellent. Thank you

  • @TonyHammer61
    @TonyHammer61 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    In the first set of bunker shots you are hitting the sand a lot nearer to the ball than you described at the beginning. Personally I feel that hitting the sand 3-4 inches before the ball with the club face that far open means the ball would not reach that flag

  • @giorgio8449
    @giorgio8449 6 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @peterdeduke1962
    @peterdeduke1962 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Chris. I hope this is not a dumb question, but I noticed that the sand you are in is pretty nice and light. Where I play, they use heavier and more course-type sand, especially when it is wet. Would this change the technique of the swing or mean more acceleration?

  • @trainingxtrish

  • @markhimpoo4972
    @markhimpoo4972 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Fabulous explanation again , simplifying the keys that make a good bunker player. Just one question , do you quieten your hips (ie less rotation) more than in your normal swing, and if so why? Many thanks as always, appreciate your ability to identify the mistakes and bad habits we have ,best regards

    • @ChrisRyanGolf
      @ChrisRyanGolf  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Mark, yes I would say the lower body is less active, just don’t generally require that much power and speed in this shot so no need to use the legs as much 👍

  • @lindaconn5781
    @lindaconn5781 4 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @mvwhity
    @mvwhity 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    thank you Chris, great video.
    But why not using a club with 80 degrees instead to open the loft? Is 56 and 12 the best for a bunker shot?

    • @ChrisRyanGolf
      @ChrisRyanGolf  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for watching, taking a 56 and opening up the face exposes the bounce more and makes this club more effective from the sand 👍

  • @huygmail

  • @MoizHaroon
    @MoizHaroon 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Chris, would you do something different if the sand is too fine or if it’s wet!

    • @ChrisRyanGolf
      @ChrisRyanGolf  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey, yes I would tend to try and alter the approach angle and which part of the club enters the sand, a lot of this just comes with experience and playing from varying types of sand
