As surprising as it sounds, a lot more than golf occurs on the golf course. Although not very often, sometimes bizarre and unusual things occur on the luscious greens of a course. And whenever they do, it sure is absolutely bewildering to witness, as recent onlookers at a Canadian course can attest!

Animals have been a huge part of humans habitats long before humans came, but their presence on the golf course is fairly new. Recently, one such out-of-the-ordinary incident was recorded at one of Canada’s prominent golf courses and left the fans hysterical.

Fans witness an unbearably surprising scene on the course

There was a time during the Wells Fargo Championship when golf heartthrob Rickie Fowler picked up a snake with his wedge while competing. This was an odd sight for the fans and even the golfers to witness. But how would you react if you saw a bear pick up a golfer’s kitbag and flee? Well, the people at the Westwood Plateau Executive Course in Canada certainly didn’t have to wonder about how to react.

A golf page, golf_gods on Instagram, shared a hilarious video wherein a golf cart was standing in a stationary position as a black bear approached the cart. His eyes were set on the golf bag that was just sitting there unattended!

The bear grabbed the bag with its teeth and dragged it behind the bushes. He sat in the bushes with the bag for just a second and then rolled down with the bag, all while hearing the yelling and laughing sounds from the people present on the court. Presumably, the man to whom the bag belonged tried to get it back from the bear and chased him with a club in his hand. Unsurprisingly, all his efforts were in vain, as the bear disappeared with the bag.
