With several threads lately on the topic of bunker play, I have to wonder do you ever aim for the bunker. You hear about it with the pros fairly often.
Last year I played a two day tournament. On Saturday, one particular par 4, bunker front, trouble long. 3H hits front of the green, no stopping it on that green, and puts me in a mess behind the green. Short answer, double bogey.
Next day, almost exact position on said hole. Knowing long was dead, I chocked down and took aim for the front bunker. Up and down for a sandy.
Since then, I have no issue putting the ball in the bunker when anything other than a miracle shot could spell disaster.
Do you ever purposely do the same?
