I am over 50 actually hate golf I would had a big laugh about that I have several RC cars no golf clubs ! Looks like a new sport RC golf might give it a try.

To be honest that reaction could happen with any golf nut at any age, looks pretty illegal so he would not have a leg to stand on, he got what he deserves as much as I hate golf they do have rights.

Its like walking into a biker bar find the biggest meanest looking one and slap them in the face !

I kind of agree but the guy was asking for it.
I occasionally get dragged out to play golf its dull and the people that get into are very serious types who think are Greg Norman types. Golf is like a cult or a religion to these people.

I used to play a bit but also got bored. I thought I'd take it up again when I get old but every time I play.....nup still boring.

I prefer water sports, just about to take up kite boarding

We use to play regularly at the Royal Avalon 9 hole hackers course. We had strict rules you had to drink 1 beer per hole and the 6th you had to hit the ball off a beer can. The 7th (I think) was a short hole but we had a rule you had to play with a wood and try to hit the house across the road .... never succeeded.

We had a bucks day that started there, same rules above except we took a wheel barrow around the course full of ice for the beer. On the 5th one I was on the green and one guy was charging down the fairway with beer barrow which started bouncing, all I could see was all this beer and ice coming towards me. Strangely enough I nearly made par that day which given my golfing ability was a miracle.

These days I focus on fishing, I will be up in Cairns tomorrow doing some off shore fishing.

It was borderline appropriate. But if he was not having a bad day, he would have just laughed it off and just put the ball back to where it landed. I figure (if this was not some kind of bogus attempt at "funniest home videos") the guy was having one of those days off after a week of off days.

That is a good analogy. I mean, under the rules of golf, you can remove any foreign object that is not a natural part of the golf course.
