Troubleshooting

Ball is not getting enough height out of the bunker.

Ensure a full swing with a square face, and don't be afraid to take a divot. Focus on accelerating through the ball.

The club is digging into the sand.

Adjust your stance slightly, moving the ball position forward. Also, ensure you are using the correct technique of hitting behind the ball.

Inconsistent distance control.

Practice your swing tempo and distance control. Choke down on the grip for shorter shots and adjust your swing speed.
