CHAPTER X.
Play from ,Bunkers.
NSTRUCTION is needed on how
to escape from bunkers, and
how to make the best use
of a favourable lie in a bunker,
as it is needed in other depart-
ments of the game. In the first
place I would say, don't be rash ! It
may be that to save a hole you will
have to go for the ball which is lying
badly in a bunker, and trust to getting

to play back, to screw the ball out, or
to go at it all out. If you are " tucked
up " at the base of a high bunker,
there is usually no alternative to
playing out at the side.
