Think about it, if you could convert 5 out of 10 attempts from a
normal lie in the trap, how many strokes could YOU save per
round?
If you're like most people, you could save yourself at least 3-4
strokes per 18 holes.
I consider myself a decent player and having said that, I played
recently at Pilot Knob Park in the foothills of the North
Carolina Mountains. I found myself in green side bunkers 4 times
during my round. Let's just say my iron play was a bit less than

name because they look like the head of a spoon. They act for
the bait fish by doing a flickering and wobbling movement or
action. Spoons are excellent for starters in lure fishing; easy
