Default Course conditions can always be worse

When you hear about an infestation on a golf course, typically it’s geese or deer or some kind of insect or rodent, but for a course in West Yorkshire, England, a pig infestation sent a pair of people to the hospital and forced management to close the course temporarily.

Lightcliffe Golf Club in Calderdale reported two large pigs had made their way onto the property last week and immediately began to cause problems. They dug up tee boxes and attacked two people who tried to shoo them away.

I guess we are lucky only to have the infestation of golfers who won't repair their divots, ball marks, or using their putters to retrieve their balls out of the cups deforming the holes!

Never happen over here, lots of guns in golf carts. But, would that meet stand you’re ground?
