We all know who the good putters are at our clubs – they have an air of confidence on the greens and expect to get the ball in the hole every time they stand over a putt.

Many ammies are terrified of bunkers, but I’d like to help you lose your fear of the sand trap – hence the term bunker ‘play’.

Golfers have different options to choose from when playing from positions close to the green. Most will stick to one club, but others will be more adventurous and try different shots with different clubs

In any round of golf we are faced with a variety of chipshots. At times we are close to the fringe of the green, with a good lie, and require no more than a simple movement, while at other times we are faced with deep rough and slopes that demand a lofted shot.
