SANDTRAPS...Yes, no matter where you live you must RAKE THEM!
>  It is amazing to me how inconsiderate some golfers can be by not raking after themselves in our sandtraps. You are raking out of courtesy for the golfers behind you. There is an urban legend in the Villages about how some snobby people have told our Ambassaddors who ask them to rake that goes something like this: "I'm from (you fill it in) and I DON'T RAKE! That's your job!!!"...I'm sure that at some point this happened and it continues to happen. Yes, occasionally, the Ambassadors will ask you to "pick up the pace" but this doesn't mean that you don't take the time to rake your bunkers. Please be courteous and rake your traps. Thank you!
