Golf is among the most peaceful of all sports. While hot-head conversations sometimes take place between players in certain cases, rarely has there been a case of physical violence on the greens.

However, recently such a shocking story came to light where a golf course had to witness violence and even death. But not of a person but of an animal. An otherwise calm and composed game of golf turned into a horror show when some people in New York City witnessed a man displaying a barbaric activity of fatally harming a creature.
