Definition: An "abnormal ground condition" is any of several conditions that, when they exist and your golf ball is affected by them, entitle the player to relief. Abnormal ground conditions include casual water, ground under repair and holes made by burrowing animals (e.g., gopher hole or snake hole).
LMAO.....I grew up draggin' a bag around the 'Wick, and Riverview. Funny thing was, at the time, they were paradise to a kid who learned on the 9 holers of Ridgeline & Santiago.
