Hitting Golf Fried Eggs

Video Transcript

"O.k. fried eggs are one of my favorite foods but on the golf course they may not be that much fun and they can be difficult to digest. So what a fried egg is, is you've hit a high lofted shot and it's landed in the sand and stuck like that; so it's a tough shot to get out because you're not going to be able to get much spin on it which means when you, if you're fortunate enough to get enough loft and get it out the ball can roll a bit. So sometimes you got to take it as it is. So in this fried egg shot; so the ball is below the sand but it's got a little circle around it of, of air because it; it, when it hit it kind of created a crater. So you want to just come down steep on this ball and just shovel the sand out of here. So let's see what I can do here and you want to; it's a really steep swing and you got to explode threw it. So you don't want to just go nice and easy but you really got to put some oomph into it. And that's pretty good and there wasn't much spin on it so the ball did roll. So I'm going to try to hit this one with a little oomph in the face and see if I can get any spin on it just too kind of demonstrate the difficulties of it. So this is going to be; I'm hoping this was a nice lye so we'll see how we can do with the fried egg. O.k., I got it out so that wasn't too bad. So this sands pretty nice and loose and we'll hit one more. So that's your fried egg shot; you're probably not going to do that much with it so you just want to get it out of the trap and then move on from there and forget about it but that's what happens sometimes on a nice dry sand, you can get a fried egg pretty easy with; if you hit your approach shot into the sand."
