We are working on refacing the bunker on 2. It was re-surfaced 4 years ago. Over time, in this high traffic bunker, sand has built up to a point that the shape of the bunker has been comprised and the turf is having a tough time growing through so much bunker sand. We are removing the sod and bunker sand by hand using shovels. We won't be making the bunker any bigger or smaller in size, just taking it back to its original shape. After the sod has been removed and the face has been regraded, we will install new bluegrass/fescue sod to the face. Once the new sod is installed, new sand will be brought in and graded, then this project will be complete. Below are some pictures of the process. More will follow upon completion.
Here's to hoping it doesn't rain everyday this spring!
