This phenomenon occurs when the golfer is about to chip onto the green, but inadvertently chips past the green and into another bunker. This other bunker is coined the beaver bunker. If the golfer chips it into another bunker from the beaver bunker, the following bunker would still be considered the beaver bunker, but just to the second degree this time. If this cycle were to repeat itself multiple times throughout the same hole, the degree system continues to climb up the ranks.
Oh my gosh, I just can’t hit the green today. Last hole I airmailed it from the fairway and this hole I just hit it into the beaver bunker.
