If your in a sand trap, don't go for accuracy when getting out, just hit it whereever you can, if you go for accuracy you'll spend longer trying to get it out.

Absolutely. I'd rather have a 20 foot putt for par than a 20 foot bunker shot because I left the first one in.

Exactly. In those parts of the game you are not trying to make a good shot you are just trying to get out of a sticky situation.

Also, just a little recommendation, if you have a bad shot out of a bunker think about shooting out backwards, it is generally easier and it may save you some embarassing repeats in the trap.

That is true it is always safer to go out the back of the trap where it is usually less steep but i like to take chances when i golf. I am usually going all or nothing when I am in a bad situation like that.

Sometimes you get lucky and it ends up being all good and other times you end up still in the sand trap.

and don't forget to follow through - the only thing worse than a bunker shot is the second bunker shot from the same bunker!
