Narrative

An employee was raking a bunker (sand trap) with a mechanical rake (unit is ridden by the operator). There are three individual bunkers at the #11 Green, which are above a retaining wall approximately 90 feet high. The employee was riding the rake on the slope towards the retaining wall and felt the machine slipping. He disembarked from the rake on to the cart path below the wall and fell fracturing ribs on his left side.
