This year im trying to break away from the courses i normally play and try some of the cheaper less known courses in the area. Yesterday i played at a rather cheap course and came across an issue that i didnt know how to handle. I landed a ball in a green side "sand trap". However when i walked up to it, i discovered that it had no sand in it and i can only assume that it was constructed by digging a hole and raking it, it also had a couple very small weeds growing in it. Now i played it as a sand trap, but am wondering if i could of played it as a waste area? Any help is appreciated
