LAS VEGAS, NV – When asked which area of their golf course needs the most work, most superintendents will have bunkers at or near the top of their list. But when it comes to pulling the trigger for that expenditure, they often say “can’t afford it.”
The folks at Key Golf have a better answer: “How can you afford not to?” The reason? Bunker liners will save the course lots of money in the long run.
“Most course owners would be amazed at just how much money bunker liners will save them over time,” said Key Golf’s Kip Wolfe, who oversees the work of BunkersPlus™, a division of Key Golf. “Just in savings on bunker maintenance alone, the cost of putting liners into bunkers will be recouped in a very short period of time.”
BunkersPlus™ is the exclusive distributor and installer of Linebacker™ bunker liner which is a vastly superior bunker liner for protection medium that employs a new technology in polymer/acrylic resins utilizing a natural base glass aggregate which provides solid protection from dust, rocks and soil erosion.
The results are three-fold. The playability of bunkers is vastly improved, as is the appearance. Secondly, the necessity of regular bunker maintenance is cut back dramatically. And thirdly, standing water in bunkers after major downpours is practically non-existent, thus the major wear and tear of bunkers is greatly reduced.
“We are already seeing an uptick in orders for bunker reconstruction,” said Jeremie Smith, sales and operations manager for Bunkers Plus. “And as the economy improves, I am sure more and more courses will realize the benefits of installing bunker liners.”
