2025 PGA Teacher of the Year Jason Baile shares his tips for playing bunker shots that get up into the face of the trap.

Coach Baile explains how amateurs often make setup mistakes that lead to poor shots. Instead, he recommends players get higher up the slope, create a solid base, choke up, and keep the club square to play the shot.
