Many poor sand shots result from poor tempo -- either decelerating into the sand hitting the shot fat, or over-accelerating and hitting it thin. For all greenside bunker shots, I concentrate on swinging my hands smoothly from shoulder height in the backswing to shoulder height in the follow-through. For a shorter carry, I simply open the clubface more, keeping my swing the same length. Just as with putting, good tempo will encourage constant grip pressure and relaxed arms, so your results will be more consistent.
