Patrick Husby, grounds superintendent for Hamilton Farm Golf Club in Gladstone, New Jersey commenting on
the liner he used for his bunker renovation called SandMat.

“Hammering staples back in is a maintenance headache,” he says “It’s physically hard to do. Many are
three-quarters of the way in and then bent over the rest of the way.” Keeping track of the tens of
thousands of staples is a difficult task for the maintenance staff. Husby worries a golf club could catch
on one, so his five-man bunker crew spends about an hour or an hour and a half a day pounding staples
back in when they hand rake bunkers. “The liner edges are becoming an issue. When the edges are
exposed they start to fray, which requires dedicating labor for trimming them.” “That’s adding up to
considerable time – eight to sixteen man hours per week,” he says. “It’s becoming something we have
to do that we didn’t have to do before.”

What are they saying about Bunkertac?

Course superintendent Gordon Johnston at Serengeti Golf & Wildlife Estate in South Africa cannot praise Bunkertac
enough nearly two years after it was applied.

“This is unbelievable, really, it’s awesome,” he says. “Besides making our work a lot easier, it is obvious that
this stuff is just way better than the likes of sand mats that constantly have to be repaired after golfers or
bunker machines have damaged them. Our bunkers have stood up perfectly after heavy rains, and I am
completely sold on Bunkertac,” he says.

Charl Blaauw, course superintendent at Oubaai Golf Resort in South Africa commenting on his
bunker renovation project using Bunkertac.

“Our bunker project is on track and the new product ‘Bunkertac’ that we are applying on the
bunker slopes seems to be working well in stabilising sand on these slopes and thereby giving
us some good playing surfaces out of the bunkers.”

“The bunker project is finished and the playability of the greenside bunkers has improved a lot
and will be consistent throughout.”

“We added Bunkertac on the badly washed fairway bunkers. This will give us a good finished
look on these bunker slopes with added strength in heavy rainstorms. It will also stop the
contamination of stones and soil into the sand.”

Blair Atholl Golf Estate, Lanseria, South Africa June 2009 Newsletter regarding bunker renovation
project using Bunkertac.

“In order to institute a successful and sustainable upgrade of our bunkers, we chose a method
that uses Bunkertac, supplied and installed by On-Course Solutions. This method is
environmentally compliant and does not require use of plastic liners or geo textiles. The finished
look is not only completely natural, but also in keeping with our environmentally friendly and
compliant requirements. Bunkertac provides the newest and best available technology for the

maintenance as run off and erosion is also controlled by using Bunkertac, which will result in far
less repairs being required after next year’s rains. This in addition to enhanced playability and
reduced environmental impact through bunker renovation at Blair Atholl.”
