  At first I thought pitch shot with extra power but that went 0 yards lol.

  90% of my sand exits are pitches. The other 10% are punches. On your  pitch that didn't go anywhere-what do you mean by extra power? (I would have hit my 64w out of there, strength depending on the lie and how far away from the bunker wall I was.)

  We all do it differently Jim. 90% of mine are full shots and the rest are flops. It doesn't mean either of us are wrong, people just have to see what works for them.

  Where do you get the wrong part? Her stats are better than mine even though she doesn't have many rounds in. I asked her a question unless you speaking for her is a requirement of belonging to your CC.

  put the aim marker 5 ffet left

  How do I know where 5 foot left is? Probably a dumb question but I can only see a distance in straight lines.

  Select putter and then reverse view, the flag is always on the grid line, so 2 and one half grid boxes to ur right, and adjust accordingly for any break u see.

  My posts are being moderated, takes a long time before they show up.

  I was 8 yards from the flag, I was in 30/40 sand. I tried hitting my pitch ( rated 16 yards) around 13/14 yards distance. It may be I just didn't hit it hard enough. I can't remember how high the bunker wall was so that could have been the cause.

  Oh...it was Merion number 10.
