We have gone to lift clean and place within 6".

With all green staff back at work at least the bunkers will now get raked twice a week.

I would not want the free drop option.

Most of our bunkers have down slope running into them so the shot from these combined with very tight links lies makes for an almost impossible shot.


The allowable LR is place and not drop.

It is a 6 inch pick and place. Makes it a little easier but even then with some bunkers full of footprints that has proved tricky

Initially, GUR was proposed. Within a week that went to mini rakes being mandatory. Good decision for a members club, appreciate it would be harder to do this on a public course.
