Making a bunker rake decision

Looking for bunker rakes for your course?  Do yourself a favor and bring in numerous manufacturers’ models to test out on your sand at your course.

I am quite sure most manufacturers would be more than willing to send you samples of their models for you to test and Par Aide is no exception.  Just ask your preferred supplier.  There’s a slim chance the model that works best will not be ours. 🙂
