I'm surprised no one went after Randy what's his name for hitting the bird with a baseball while pitching.

Except the golfer was doing it on purpose, instead of it being a freak accident. So, really, there's nothing in common.

I doubt the golfer was trying to actually kill the thing, but he's an idiot for shooting balls into the tree in the first place. Also, that bird was stubborn as hell for staying in that tree even after balls were wizzing by and hitting the tree around it.

Oh well, he should have just gone up to the tree and rustled it out or something.

I wonder how many strokes he actually counted to score a birdie on that hole?

now that was fucking funny!

Also the bird was protected...meaning that was where it lived and it's used to balls flying past it's head...

I'm just curious about the author's assertion that professional athletes are role models and society looks up to them. This ass was a golfer, what's that got to do with him?

Tiger Woods is a big inspiration for many people. They put sportspeople on cereal boxes, blast them on the tele, they're spokespeople, etc.

Are you guys seriously getting fucking bent over a hawk?

The dude was trying to scare the fucking hawk, not kill it. Somehow, though, I'm sure somebody here will try to link it to the person throwing the puppy, which again, is a major QQ.

Think it's fair to say he was trying to hit the hawk. I'm guessing he didn't think it was going to fly away when he did either?

No he wasn't trying to hit the hawk.

Quote:
Yesterday, PGA Tour Player, Tripp Isenhour was charged with animal cruelty and killing a migratory species when he killed a hawk with a golf shot. He was filming a segment called "Shoot Like A Pro," and the bird was making noises causing him to have to re-shoot parts of the video.

He claims he was just trying to scare the bird away, but prosecutors believe it was intentional. He claims that he's an animal lover, has adopted three cats from shelters, and was horrified when he hit the bird. At least one member of the crew thought he was behaving irresponsibly...

Yeah, I'm sure a golfer is well practiced at hitting targets in the air .

The hawk wasn't in the air.

"Isenhour allegedly said, "I'll get him now," and aimed for the hawk."

negligence at best. at best he was trying to scare the bird away.... by hitting it with a hard, fast moving projectile, because it was interfering with his TV appearance.. at best.

Had the angle of the shot taken the balls out of bounds(and into the local neighborhood), and one of the balls hit some kid in the head and injured/killed them, then what?

He was being an asshole and now he's got to pay.

At first I thought it was idiots freaking out over an accident. Then I found out that it was an idiot doing it on purpose.

I hope he's banned from tourneys for life for doing something so stupid.
