Shaping the final bunker!


Friday marked the time when we started work to renovate the last bunker on the golf course.  The lucky hole happened to be #12, and since it only had one small bunker it was all completed in one day.  Attached at the top is a video of the Shaper building the face of the bunker.  As you watch the video you will see the machine dump dirt along the top edge, and then smash it down to compact it.  He  will then use the bucket to shape out the face of the bunker, which will soon be sodded to bermudagrass.  When this video was taken he had already roughly shaped the right side of the bunker, and you can see it in the background of the video.  It is pretty impressive how well the operator can work the machine!
