Technically this Golf Tips Mag article teaches two trouble shots. The first is a punch out from the trees... but it's the second shot I'm interested in.
The 2nd shot is a backward shot, with your again to the target.
Alison Curdt's explanation is absurdly simple, but the key to the shot really is that simple. This is a shot that is made entirely with one wrist. You can see in the photo sequence above that she isn't swinging her arm; she's just cocking her wrist upward and then using that wrist cock to strike the ball. Compare photo 5 with photo 3. It's pretty obvious, isn't it?
Will you want to exercise this shot? Of path. It may also take a bit practice to benefit confidence that wrist movement on my own is sufficient to get the important distance for this shot. But after you do, the real execution is dust simple.
And when your ball is in the junk, simple is exactly what you need.
