Bunker Sand Selection

Selecting Bunker Sand for your course is different than topdressing sand or construction materials.  Unlike the scientific research and testing methods that have been developed to qualify materials for topdressing and construction, bunker sand evaluation is much more subjective.  In fact what may be a good trap sand for one type of player may be unfavorable for the next. 

 

It is important to choose a consistent sand source, know the infiltration rate will not impede drainage, the gradation of the sand will not impact the rootzone performance of a green when it is "splashed" on to the surface, and that the sand characteristics for playability are in line with your typical clientele. 

 

We feel test bunkers and evaluation of bunker sands in the real world are the best way for our customers to choose the right sand.  We encourage people to evaluate our bunker sands in these types of "real world" situations.  When you see how a sand performs for your course and players you will then be able to make the best selection.
