TRAPS cannot be taken lightly. You are bound to get into them, especially in the beginning. Many’ a stroke can be saved by using the right technique in getting back on the fairway or onto the green. While my winning of the Masters is attributed to my good luck with putting strokes, 1 was given this opportunity by having extreme good fortune in getting out of traps... For example, on the 10th hole of the third round at Augusta, I
I TELL this to point out how ’ |tremendously, “Important ts Ww {master the. trap. shots. : In the stance for the sand trap shot, the body and feet should & turned slightly to the left. The stroke at impact and the position of the face of the club are also different, . While the face of thé club is square in driving strokes, it is held open for trap shots. This is not for back spin or loft, but to keep the sole of the club from digging foo deeply into the sand Remember that you do not hit; the ball in a sand trap. The impact is four inches behind the ball.
AS SHOWN in the accompanying photograph, the ball rests on top.of the sand. This picture is shown to fllustrate the -importance of this fact. So many goit-| ers overlook this.
