  Question # 1 - is there a good post showing ways to get out of sand traps?

  Question #2 - If your real deep in fescue (st Andrews has some good examples) and or weeds and your buried 60-70% plus is there a way to pickup or concede the hole.

  I know the obvious answer is to stay out of these situations, but when your learning it happens.

  Thank you

  hi

  general rule is this: if sand is below 20%, then you can hit almost any club out... i'd stay away from 3i and 3w since their flight path is low, so it may get into trouble.

  you can hit a punch from most fescue but if it's 50% or higher, your clubs will not have much luck. I would hit sideways to fairway and try to save par.

  you can concede if it's specific game mode that allows for it, but not in normal play.
