Ignorance is not being aware of a fact. When its spelled out for you,
if you read it and don't understand, its stupidity.

Of course the sheep didn't create forms like the road hole bunker etc.
Alas, the original concept is from the soil as the Grandfathers of Golf
first used it. An example of today may be found here:
<http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/6025/naturbunkermullion.jpg>

This one is from Mullion, Cornwall, England, the most southerly golf course
in England. This hole is not a bunker in play but just a place where the
grass-covered soil broke open and sand became visible, some 20 yards in
front and left of a tee (#8?)

Yes, judg�ng from John's photos.

Unfortunately, I haven't played there. We didn't dare to visit a second
James Braid course after Boat of Garten which had many unsolved questions
for us ;->

Instead, we visited Golspie, only a few miles south, and had much fun on
our round there.

This was on my first addicting tour to Scotland in 2007 when we stayed at
Inverness for most of the time.
