I can play the game and part of the game is the skill it takes not just to get out of bunkers but to try to get it close to save par. A plugged ball takes away all the skill of a sand shot. Just get it out. I repeat the bunkers here are bad,very bad. Played Mallory today. Bunkers are terrible.

Maybe I'm missing something but if you are consistently hitting in sand traps and are a low handicap golfer and became proficient with your sand play you would be a scratch golfer. Having played with all ranges of golfers and at many courses over my career, the overwhelming choice for traps is to stay out of them but if you get into them, your chances of a successful shot from them are from the fluffy stuff and not rock hard traps..OBTW, practice helps too..
