what is a snowman in golf

A snowman in golf is a term used to describe a score of three over par on a single hole. It gets its name from the fact that a snowman is made up of three parts, much like a three-over-par score consists of three strokes more than the standard number of strokes for that hole. In golf, a snowman is considered a bad score, as it indicates that the player has taken three more shots than they should have.
