How to use hole in a sentence?
80 percent of the balls that don't reach the hole, don't go in.
The goal is to try and find the chimney, drill some bolts, put some ropes in and rappel down into different chimneys to wiggle down into the cave maze to see if we can get to the main passage, the key is finding the right hole.

Carl Spackler IT'S IN THE HOLE.
What happens to the hole when the cheese is gone
