Greenside bunker play
Weekly advice from local pros to improve your game.
By Chris Karamitsos
Published January 4, 2007
Favorite local course other than home: Belleair Country Club East Course. No. 14 is one of the prettiest golf holes in Florida. It's a great Donald Ross design. Favorite course nationally: Bethpage Black, N.Y. Was my home course growing up on Long Island. Love the changes they made for the (U.S.) Open. Best golf advice ever received: Stay in the present. Don't think about the previous hole, good or bad. Don't look ahead to the next hole. Chris Karamitsos is the junior golf chairman for the North Florida PGA and author of School Golf: A Teacher's Manual. Home course: Avila Country Club Tampa. Send e-mail to Chris at CKsigma@aol.com.

Your "Greenside bunker play" advice was a bit lacking. In fact there was no advice at all other than "stay in the present". Should I no longer dread bunkers now that you've offered me that expert advice? I didn't realize it could be this easy!
