# 4 Bunker update
Unfortunately, I was unable to take action pictures this morning. I was on a spray rig a majority of the morning, and the staff made quick work of the bunker preparation. However, I did take some pictures of the finished bunker on the right side of #4 White.

Bunker Work
As we are gearing up for spring, we are working on some smaller projects around the course to help with playability. Today the 5th, we started a bunker renovation of #4 white. We used a vibratory plate compactor to compact the existing clay and added a single drain line to the bunker. We are currently adding sand to this bunker and should finish the right side bunker by some time tomorrow. Once this bunker is completed, we will begin work on the left side bunker. If all goes well, we will finish this bunker no later then Friday morning. Below are some pictures of our staff working on the bunker. Hopefully, I can get some action pictures of the process tomorrow, when we start the left bunker.
