That is simply a bad bunker.As for my skill level,if that matters, I am a 4 handicap. 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.
I am a 15 hanicap, played Havanna today shot a 78, had to play out of the sand on several shots. I thought the traps were fair and the course in great condition. People here complain if the sand is to loose, compact, too much, not enough etc. The grass is too long, too short, greens too fast, not fast enought. I have played under all conditions, and learn to adjust. If i have a problem it is people not raking. Easy solition to your issue, stay out of the sand, or play some where else. By the way lets replace the sand with water hazzards and see what happens, JUST SAYING!
