Usually there are hundreds, and 20% of them are right under a rake, some traps have a 30-yard trail of footprints from front to back with a "scoop" of sand out every 5 yards or so. I once watched this show from my lanai with some bozo taking 6 shots to get out of the fairway bunker (championship course) and just walked away. I ran out and raked the trap, and since the "golfer" STILL wasn't more than 20 yards away, said "you're welcome", which drew a one-fingered salute. I did suggest he go play a pitch and putt but then recanted since even those people deserve better. (I was afraid he would be taking divots on a putting course)
Probably a priority member as I was informed one time, giggle
