How to Rake Sand Bunkers

By Brent Kelley, About.com Guide

Locate the lowest spot around the edge of the bunker that is conventient to your golf ball. This will be your entry and exit point. Identifying this spot keeps you from walking down a steep facing (possibly damaging the turf), stepping off a higher rim (leaving deeper footprints), or having to walk a longer distance which would require raking a greater area of sand.
