Bunker Do's & Don'ts

Bunker Do's & Don'ts

Over the past few months, there has been quite a few questions raised about the condition of our bunkers and how they are raked by golfers during competition & social play.
Please click on this short 4 minute video to see how best to rake & maintain bunkers.
There is a bit of a fallacy about the style of bunker rake that we use.  But the problem is more likely to be the way that the bunkers are raked, rather than the rakes themselves.
Thank you to Kingston Heath GC for the use of their video
