#10 Bunker Completed

The rebuilding of the left front bunker on #10 is now complete.  We experienced a few days delay due to a combination of equipment problems and a rain that made things too wet to work for a couple days, but otherwise this rebuild went just as smoothly as the two before it.



What this means
With the completion of this bunker rebuild in just over 5 months we have rebuilt or removed every bunker on this hole.  The rear bunker was converted to a grassy area starting on August 29, 2011;  the right front bunker was rebuilt starting on January 9, 2012; and the left front bunker was rebuilt starting on January 23, 2012.  Our visitors that have not played here since the August 2-Man Scramble will see a drastically updated hole when they return this spring.

These bunker rebuilds should save us many, many hours of manpower each season that we have previously spent raking and basically rebuilding them each time we experienced a heavy rain.  With their grass faces and flat sand areas they should suffer little or no erosion problems.
