Greenside Bunker Update

We recently started edging our greenside bunkers. Because the floors of the newly renovated greenside bunkers are lined with gravel, accuracy in the edging process is extremely important to prevent intrusion from soil outside of the gravel floor. This may slow down the edging process a bit, but will insure consistent sand in our greenside bunkers. This process also involves re-distribution of sand to make sure that sand depths are as consistent as possible. 

Bunker Drainage

We are extremely pleased with the results we have seen from last year's bunker renovation. Overall drainage and play ability of these bunkers is greatly improved. Some members may have noticed that the front left bunker on #3 has had a pool of water in it after heavy rainfall, despite the recently completed renovation. The drainage issue in that particular bunker is caused by a clog in the outfall drainage outside of the bunker. Once we get past the busy season, correction of this issue will be a top priority. Protecting the capital improvements that we have made here at GCC will allow us to continue further improvements to the course without taking any steps in the wrong direction.
