What an idiot.

Update: The golfer "apologizes."

A 39 year old idiot and a crew of 15 who said nothing.

ARGH!

Sad story. I agree with Lynne. One of the 15 people watching should have said something.

“As soon as this happened, I was mortified and extremely upset and continue to be upset”

Yeah, sure! After you tried hitting it for ages and used a year's supply of golf balls, it suddenly struck you - just as it struck the hawk - that maybe there might be a slight lapse of morality in your behaviour?

Now to something completely different: can someone please help me? I can't find the English translation for the German words "Arschloch" and "Heuchler".
Don't know why these words crossed my mind just now, suppose pure coincidence.

I can take a guess Jochen!

Do you think I should ask Tripp Isenhour? After all, his last name looks as if it is an English version of the German name Eisenhauer ("Hitter of Iron", what irony!).

¡Ese tipo es un imbécil!
I feel sad and angry, Lynne is so right, 15 (blip) there and nobody thought that was wrong?
That (blip) golfer should be a rol model as an athlet, should think first so he wouldn't feel 'mortified' later.
Acts like this have NO excuse.
Let's get Tiger Woods practice his shots while this (blip) sits on a tree with a bulls-eye painted on the forehead...
(I'm sorry, I usually don't speak like this, but this is too much)

Jochen, that is interesting indeed.

Mel, I like your Tiger Woods idea.
