A thread.


Because there are always rules here:


1. I'll start in my first reply with one word and the associated golf architecture feature, hole, or course, et al.
2. I'll provide the next word.
3. Respond to that word using the quote feature.*
4. Add your new word/short phrase for the next association.


*Respond to any word on the thread, no limits to the amount of responses.
