  Iam currently playing in St.Andrews ...on hole 7...found a deep bunker with 30mph winds..Ive had this awhile back happen...ball is agains bunker wall..how can you hit out of it? If you hit it , it just keeps bouncing off wall and going no where...Anyway to reverse the shot to middle of bunker so I have clearance to hit out of it?

  if you're right up against the front face of the bunker your best best probably is to hit one backwards out of the bunker.  You can't reverse the view but just drag the aiming triangle behind with the overhead view or any of the zoom/helicopter views that would help.  it won't look right graphically but you will hit it where you aimed.

  Panzer is correct. You have to hit back toward the tee or hit a full LW about 3/4 power to the left. no way to hit toward the green.
