You might need to read a little slower there, man. He said they were able to run it off and that it was killed the next day. He makes no mention of it being killed by him, nor does he mention discharging a gun. And no, hunting down a rabid fox is not "just plain stupid" if you know what you're doing.

Oops my bad :doh: Well I would say hunting down a rabid fox on a golf course isn't smart. Out away from populated areas, yea if your a hunter or experienced enough have at it. Though still call animal control, they would probably need to dispose of the animal so not to spread the disease more.

If I have a gun with me and I see a rabid animal I am definitely going to shoot it, and if I don't have a gun with me I am going to go get one and shoot it.

To let a rabid animal roam around is irresponsible.

You'd best hunt the sumbitch down wherever you can find it -- and as fast as humanly possible.

And by referencing people who know what they're doing, I'm not referring to guys who'd be indiscriminately slinging lead all over the place and endangering innocent bystanders. These people would shoot what they're aiming at, and nothing else.

I would defend myself with what ever I have at hand. Still Calling someone more experienced to get rid of an animal isn't irresponsible.

True, in CA we don't have as bad an issue with Rabies, so it's hard for me to have any real perspective on this.

He tracked rabid fox? Works for animal control? Or just another fairy tale...To justify carrying. C'mon folks nobody gives a shit if you want to carry but admit it is personal choice. The lame reasons are just silly. I have a permit because I want it don't need dramatic reason. Nut up or shut up.

What on God's green earth are you talking about?

There's a lot of wild shit being thrown around here, and it appears as if most of it is coming from "forum leaders."

There's no "cause." Forum Leaders are simply people with positive reputations who have 1000+ posts.

I'll say for the final time: this thread will get back on topic (CC on the Golf Course), or the thread will be locked like the others, or at least moved to the Grill Room.

I'm not really talking about defending myself. Just performing a duty. And I would say I have as much experience as anybody around here.

So you wouldn't shoot a rabid animal if you had a shot? SMH! So it wanders off and spreads the disease.

Some of ya'll definitely live in a different world than I do.

Yea one where I have no clue how to use a gun, and my best weapon is my cellphone to call 911. :-P As for guns on a golf course, I personally don't mind it, as long as the person doesn't violate private owners right to not allow guns on the course. I personally don't think it is required, of course I never had issues on a golf course before to where I think I would need one.

Since I never have one with me at the course I would have to run and get the owner's wife's gun (she always has one) but with a rabid animal on the course that's exactly what I would do.

So instead of calling the proper authorities, like animal control, you took action and discharged a gun illegally to take out a fox. Good job, you are one of the fools who doesn't deserve to have a gun, clearly you have no clue what the concept of a threat is. I can understand a bear, but to go and hunt down a rabid fox is just plain stupid.

I never hunted down the fox but did call 911 and the clubhouse! Today, I would kill it and call the clubhouse-no worries. BTW-criminals don't deserve to have guns but have lots of them and THE CRIMINALS ARE VERY SNEAKY AND DO NOT REGISTER THEIR WEAPONS AS I HAVE DONE! Besides all that, one rabid animal usually means more than one. In my state, discharging a registered weapon in self-defense is legal!

Good to know you have a couple of hundred thousand and more hanging around for your defense if you happen to shoot a human.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By Zeph ·

      First (12 holes) round in a year, maybe the third round in five years. After prioritizing family for a long time, I’m ready to play more golf. We moved back where I grew up and started playing golf. The course is close, but only six holes and pretty short, so the longest club I bring is a 4i. It is very undulated, with a lot of elevation changes and 4/6 greens are blind shots. The long game was relatively good (relative to my game and swing). Got things to work on, but the current state is manageable. One OB. Wedges and short game was atrocious. Chunking like I was making a garden. On the worst hole I chunked a 58° approach, then chunked three chips in a row… Time to search up some chipping topics and start practicing. I’ll take this over bad long game and good short game. The short game is easier to fix. Shot a net +17(!), gross +23, over 12 holes.

      My Favorite Putts

      By DrizZzY ·

      I dont know if I really have a favorite, but there are two that have stuck in my mind for a very long time. #15 at Erie Golf course during the Finals of the EDGA Matchplay. Was up early and then lost a few holes in row so the match was close again. My opponent had a short putt for birdie. I hit past hole high, but 35 feet right. I drained the putt and looked over at my opponent who was in disbelief.   #8 at Whispering Woods during another year of the EDGA Matchplay. Was playing a very cocky opponent who made sure to mention on the first tee how many times he won the club championship at this course. I hammered this 30 footer that clanked off of the pin and dropped. My opponent was disgusted and that made me weirdly happy. I went on to win 5&3 or something like that, so that entire day has stayed in my memory.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Darkfrog ·

      Day 20: Did 30 minutes after getting home from work, before kid's baseball practice. This session was piecing out the new hip move in transition, doing 2-3 rehearsals from the top, and then hitting a ball from between P5/P6. Did another 45 minutes after baseball practice and dinner. Did 30 more minutes of what I did earlier, and then about 15 minutes of full swings trying to incorporate athletically.
