Definition: A "cape hole" is one that features water down its entire length on one side only, and whose fairway curves around that water to the green. The curve is often slight (not rising to the level of a dogleg), but the golfer may be faced with a decision on whether to attempt cutting the corner of the water hazard where the fairway bends. Cape holes are usually found on par-4s.
