& download the charts, about half way down.
These charts include a chart for green side bunker play.
Good luck!

I downloaded your charts (Thank You) but I have a question. I'm having trouble figuring out how to read the greenside bunker chart. Would you mind explaining it to a block head like myself?

Say you had the ball 21yards to the pin but were 6 feet below the pin.
Look in the chart & choose the LW in Links
1 1/2 times 6 feet equals 9 feet. That's 3 yards added to 21 yards equals 24 yards to the pin.
Go to chart & find 24 yards LW
You can see the loft is -5 but you need to go to the advanced shot setup in Links
(alt key on your keyboard)
choose setup
move the slider to the top (higher trajectory)
move the slider down the -5 as shown in the chart
Take the shot using the 12/6 snap

Glad I haven't seen charts if that's what it's telling you

nahhhhhhhh just use a LW CHIP and hack it out ! works for me every time. NOT !

I do the same thing that Jack does. Greenside, I do try to miss the snap a little left of bottom of meter, and I do only go up to about the 10 dot on the meter.

a bouncing ball never sleeps

Do everything else you usual do to get out of green side bunkers but use 50% swing.
e.i. 9/6 o'clock swing instead of 12/6

Is it just me that finds a 9/6 swing really really difficult ?

No, it's not just you Roy.
