Practice bunker spin with your longest iron
To train the spinning splash shot, make it harder than it needs to be: practice bunker shots with your longest, lowest-lofted iron the way Seve did with a three iron. Lay the face wide open, get down the grip to point the loft up, and get super low - almost putting a knee into the sand. Being able to get a long iron out of the bunker transfers back to and improves your standard splash shot.
