The History of the Better Billy Bunker

The Evolution and History of The Better Billy Bunker

The industry tagged the name Billy Bunker for former Augusta National Golf Club’s superintendent Billy Fuller, who invented this bunker construction specification in 1981. The design was to improved a bunker’s drainage and playability by using drainage pipe, a layer of pea gravel, a cloth liner and quality bunker sand.

And it worked! Billy Bunker became the standard specification used by hundreds of golf courses.

The specification has been improved, eliminating the need for a geo-textile liner and now the Better Billy Bunker Method has been developed to eliminate geo-textile. It uses a patented construction method that is the most durable and fastest draining bunker construction method on the market. Below the ST410 polymer is applied using the patented technique.
