#18 at my home course, or it's analog #10 at Black Forest.

EDIT: I guess I can add #15 at my home course which has a blind drive, and a blind approach. Remember, the time before you see the result is key! (JK Thesis).

The 6th at King's North at Myrtle Beach National, AKA "the gambler" - an alternate-route island fairway par-5.

This might have been the most on topic thread I ever started on gca.com, and maybe the most target answers I have ever seen here.  Way to go guys!

In Nova Scotia, Stanley Thompson's Highland Links has several holes that would qualify but to me it would be a tossup between two par 5's either hole #7 or #15




                 
Thompson golf holes were created to look as if they had always been there and were always meant to be there.
