Time for the sand shuffle

Taking advantage of the lull in play right now, the golf maintenance team is doing our quarterly bunker maintenance called the "sand shuffle."  This procedure is where we check and adjust the sand depths in the bunkers. I want to maintain a consistent 3.5-4 inches of sand throughout the bunkers for maximum playability. Most if the time we have to add sand to the high use bunkers. In all of the bunkers a plate compactor is used to firm the sand to ensure there are no fried eggs left behind.
