I would like to develop a more consistent pre swing approach. This would include being more precise on where I am playing the ball in my stance per club.

I feel like I waste atleast a stroke getting a ball out of a green side bunker if I have to carry 25-30 yards. Feel like I am just scooping under the ball. Should I just increase my swing speed? By opening the face more will it give it more loft for a softer landing?

What should I be thinking about when playing on a down slope with the ball under my feet 6in-1foot?

Also looking for a new golf shoe, something more athletic that is breathable with flexibility. Been looking at these...
