For a bunker shot, I have 60%-65% of my weight on my lead side.
I purposely didn't mention that in any post, because it's not universal advice in my opinion. I can control the bottom (depth) of my swing, most higher handicappers can't and if they have too much weigh on their lead foot, they're going to stab the club into the sand and never get out of the bunker.
Again, I'm not disagreeing with what you're saying, only cautioning golfers that it might work for some folks and absolutely not work, for others.
