Golfing Bear

This was a close call. Bear had started golfing in Bear's spare time. Bear can hold the club between his claws, and Bear got a good disguise for golfing. But Bear lost his temper and went a bit animal. Bear composed himself in the woods, hiding, then Bear got back to the car in the parking lot and drove home. Bear has since quit golfing.

An angry adolescent black bear ran amuck today on the 9th hole of
a golf and country club just outside of the central business district,
frightening a number of golfers. One man has been reported missing.

"He just came out of nowhere, throwing clubs from his mouth, and tearing
apart a golf bag with his claws. Then he looked at us and ran into the
woods" said John P Townigonian, who was preparing hit his tee shot when
the bear appeared.

One member of the foursome disappeared just before the sighting and has
not been seen since. All that is known about the unidentified man is
that his name is Beau, he comes from the New Brunswick area, he's 5'5",
about 120lbs ,has a thick dark beard and he works seasonally as a
fisherman. "He hit a terrible tee shot into the woods on the 9th, just
before all the ruckus began. Then he just disappeared. We never saw him
again".

Parks and Wildlife rangers were called to the scene and have set bear
traps but have found no sign of the bear outside of the golf course, "We
tracked him to the parking lot, then the trail just ended", said the
ranger.

As for the missing golfer no signs of an attack have been found. "He
probably just got scared and ran off. He was just paired with us today,
nobody knew him. He was some drunk though" said Townigonian.
