I bet it was a carp unless he hit it in the ocean. Yuck.

We have freshwater 'murray cod' around the area I'm in and the course he said he did it at one of the holes goes over the arm of a lake that I know has cod in it because I have caught them in that lake while actually fishing. So the story is 'possible' just not very likely.
Actually got paired with a guy today with what looked like brand new clubs, bag, buggy, clothes everything. Claimed that he could drive the ball 300 yards. He promptly stepped up to the tee, had the ball so far back in his stance it was almost at his back foot and drove it straight into the ground, didn't even make it past the red tees. This pattern continued for the whole day. Would try to hit a PW from 100 yards out and land it 50 yards from the pin still.
Best part was when he was back in the carpark I watched him back over his own clubs which he had forgotten to put into the boot of his car. Only knocked them over, wouldn't have done any damage.
