"Today's tip is about, using your putter out of the bunker. Try to hit a shot a little different, than a normal sand shot. We have a nice smooth edge on the bunker here and its giving us the opportunity to use a different approach.

We are going to make a normal type of putter swing with a normal stance and try to jump over the lip and run it out on the green and remembering that the ball will run a little extra because of the extra spin on it when it will come out.

This is great tip for people that my struggle getting out of the bunker. The goal is to get out in 1 shot. And try to save those strokes to have more pars and more birdies.:
