Edging Bunkers

Over the last two days, we have completely redone our bunker edges. This is a very timely process when we do it for the first time of the season. We have to pull all of the sand away from the edges. Then we cut a clean sharp edge with a weedeater. We are mainly trimming all of the rogue Bermuda runners that come off of the face of the bunker. Once we have our new edge, we clean out the bunker. The most timely part of the process is rebuilding the edges. We have to make sure we have a good lip where we need it and make sure there is a good slope from the grass to the bottom of the bunker on the low side of the bunker.
Throughout the summer, we will edge all the bunkers every 2-3 weeks. The rebuilding process will not take near as long the remainder of the season.
