If you drop a ball in sand, the sand particles will absorb some of the ball's kinetic energy, causing the ball to slow down faster than if it were dropped on a hard surface. The ball will also create an indentation in the sand as it lands, displacing some of the grains.

Under normal circumstances, with your ball in the sand, if you touch the sand with your club and are not in the process of making a stoke (the downward motion of the club with the intention of hitting the ball) you incur a penalty for testing the sand.

A Fried Egg or a Fried Egg Lie, is a golfing term. First off the term plugging needs to be explained. When a golf ball is plugged it means the ball sticks into the ground either in soft dirt, mud or in sand like in a sand trap. A good portion of the ball will be embedded into the ground instead of resting on top of the ground. A lie refers to where the ball is lying on the golf course. There are good lies and bad lies. A plugged ball is a very bad lie. A fried egg or a fried egg lie is when a golf ball lands in a sand trap and plugs into the sand. The sand splashes away from the ball and with only a portion of the ball visible it gives the appearance of a fried egg. The term only applies to a plugged ball in sand and almost exclusively to sand traps.

Follow Through. Do NOT hit the ball first. Use the sand behind the ball to help push the ball out of the bunker. Open your sand wedge face so it's facing the sky. Place the ball forward in your stance, then hit behind the ball an inch or two. Remember to aim left of your target to compensate for the open club face.
