5 green side bunker was another on our list for renovations. Members had commented to me that balls would get stuck near the lip on the right side and make for difficult recovery shots. We removed the liner to see what could be done to level or smooth out the uneven surface only to find solid rock. In order to keep a consistent playing surface or depth this rock had to all be removed. After the back-hoe loosened the edges, a great deal of hand work was involved to remove all the rock. The bunker was reshaped to a flat bottom with a sodded face. This allows us to keep a smooth consistent depth.

| Rock finally removed. Numerous carts of sub-soil added to smooth the bottom and finished with new liner. |
