On a par 3, I hit my shot to greenside bunker, less than 10 inches from the far side lip. So, I had to hit more or less straight down to hit it. I could have hit away from the green, which would give a flop shot over the bunker from deep(ish) rough. I could have hit it back towards the tee, again giving me a shot to green from rough. I closed the club a bit and hit down to create a splash. Ball got out but just barely, and run so hot and low, that it ended up in the bunker other side of the green, less then 10 inches from the far side lip. Same situation. Not having a better idea, I did the same thing with a little less force. Anything less, and it would not come out, but it did: Agaij hot enough to run over the green to the first bunker. Finally I have a regular bunker shot. I missed the sand save by an inch, but I missed. Three bunker shots and two putts kind of ruins the score on any hole.
looking back, a tap and a regular bunker shot would have given me a double, but did I have a better option? In other words, is there a shot that has a chance to get the ball on the green from that position? If there is, please tell me, because I certainly don't have it.
