The only rules I know that are specific to TV is in relation to the course. On par 3's you keep your cart on the cart path unless on the score card the hole is highlighted in pink, such as #5 at Hemingway at Havana. Leave the rakes inside the traps with the tip of the handle touching the edge and the rake head facing toward the middle of the trap.
I' ve played golf here for more than 2 years and don't know why the rakes need to be replaced in the trap. No one uses them . I've never seen traps left in this shape even on lowly municipal courses
