Sunday spent Edging

Today, another hot one, was spent edging the greenside bunker on 7.

This is a big bunker that blends into the wetland/lake running along the right of the hole.
The job here is to edge and look, edge and look, edge and look.

After the soil and excess grass has been scraped away, there will be more edging, and finally sod added to enhance the forms.















Rough forms have been staked, but are by no means the final form.
Once the forms have been edged, the excess material will be scraped away, and then looked at from 180 degrees. Then the refining process of edging will and island creation will continue.

















Hand work, to be followed by the mini-excavator.
















Edged and ready for the excess to be scraped away.
It's not the easiest or fastest manner to finish bunkers, but if you want individuality and harmony, there is nothing like spending time to labor over them and reflect upon them... just like anything of value.
