Just like there are various types of rakes and ideas of where rakes should be placed, there are also different methods of raking bunkers.
Some facilities use the “Aussie method” of raking bunkers, where sand faces are kept smooth while the floor of the bunker is raked normally, the USGA reported. If you find yourself in a bunker that has been prepared this way, flip the rake over and use the smooth side of the rake head—with the teeth facing up—to smooth the perimeter of the bunker where you enter and exit after raking your way out of the floor.
