To effectively recover from hitting out of a fairway bunker, a golfer should use a lofted club, open the clubface, and aim to hit the ball cleanly with a steep angle of attack. This will help the ball get out of the bunker and back onto the fairway. Additionally, maintaining good balance and following through with the swing can improve the chances of a successful recovery shot.
