While on a golf trip last weekend for my cousin’s 40th birthday, we played Willbrook Plantation in Pawley’s Island, South Carolina. This was a nice course – well maintained with quick greens and tight layouts, an abundance of water and sand, and a lot of interesting centuries old historical sites.

On the 12th hole, I found myself licking my chops at a huge green on a par three. That’s when this happened…

Not being able to see the ball from my stance, had to take an unplayable lie and drop in the sand. Now, this was the definition of a blow-up hole!
