Yesterday I played a miserable 7 holes. So miserable that I walked off after 7 after paying for 9.
Anyway, I found myself in a green side bunker that was compacted and with wet sand. My lie was good and I felt my stance was good. Ball forward in stance to get the lift, 60/40 weight on lead leg, 58* in hand with an open face.
First swing I got it up, hit the lip, and rolled back down in the same exact spot I originally hit it in. Second hit, lip, back down. Third hit lip and back down. It wasn't until the fourth hit did I finally get out of that mess.
How would I play this ball. Did I plan right but had a poor execution? Or was everything wrong and I set myself up for failure?
