If you're a beginner golfer, you might wonder why they put sand in your golf cart cooler. See the photograph to the left, it shows how you can use the scoop provided to take some out.
This sand is used for filling holes made on the golf course when you take turf (a divot) with your shot and leave it stripped to the dirt.

One of the reasons that you fill the hole with sand is it is very hard to play golf on a surface that is not level. The most important place to fill your divots is on the tee.
In the fairway, replacing divots with sand is also important. If you're sitting and waiting for your turn to play and see a huge hole in the fairway, feel welcome to fill it. You're performing a community service for all the golfers when you do.

There is often a box where you can grab sand to fill divots sitting on or near the tees. They come in a variety of shapes and styles.
Sand is also provided with a shake bottle which you use to pour sand on the grass where you've left a divot. This handy bar at the Walkabout Golf Course is used to swap empty shake bottles with full bottles.
Sometimes sand also contains grass and fertilizer. This occurs most often in Spring and Fall when grass is able to get a better start. When sand is wet, sometimes it is easier to grab and handful than it is to take a scoop or pour.
