Bunker Rakes

Flex Frame

The Flex Frame is the traditional split handle rake, and typically used in bunkers.  It is light weight, and the design makes it a proper fit for early golf.

Rod Frame

The metal bracing on the Rod frame increases the strength of the head/handle connection.  Photos are coming.

Maintenance Rakes

Our 26” head / 66” handle Rod Frame is used by the grounds crew for bunker prep and general maintenance. Some clubs do use a down-sized Rod Frame in bunkers.  

Early Rakes

Starting with a split-handle, rake design evolved by adding a wooden bow to reduce ground “chatter”, and then to an all-wooden bow brace. In 1887, Cheesebrough started using wire in place of the wooden bow. At the end of the last century, we started using a stainless steel rod brace to simplify repair. The split-handle rake is still original and is called our Flex Frame.

Rake Teeth

Round teeth gently comb through grasses.  The typical square edge teeth tear grass blades, producing brown tips that will diminish the luster of the turf.  Wooden teeth are easily replaced in the field if needed.  They are held in place with a stainless pin in the event an extended dry period shrinks the wood. A new pin is typically not required when replacing the teeth.
