Hate to be the bearer of bad news but my husband and I witnessed something very disappointing this morning. We usually walk down by Volusia golf course for our morning walk. We sit on a bench located across the street from #9 on the course. As we sat there, I noticed a golf club laying on the edge of the green. The foursome was teeing off on that hole. When they got to the green to putt, someone in the group had to notice the club. Someone did....it was a male wearing an orange shirt. We watched him walk over and pick the club up and give it a good look over. After that he put it in his bag, presumably to turn into the starter shack. We watched as they played out the last hole. This guy was a walker along with another walker and a twosome on a cart. I told my husband that we should move so that we could watch and see if this guy, who put the club in his bag, turned it in. The starter shack was not visible from the bench. After what appeared to be cleaning the garbage out of his bag, we watched him not even take the found club out of his bag. Yup, he stole the club. He walked away with it. It seriously crossed our minds to go over to the starter shack and call him out on it but we figured it would be his word against ours. My husband and I were greatly saddened but this criminal act. If I were the others golfing with him, I would have made sure he turned it in and not stole it. So much for people being honest. In my opinion, all four golfers were dishonest.
