I've played a few rounds of golf in my life and seen plenty of squirrels, deer, and geese on the course. But I have never seen a person attacked by a goose before until I saw this article online. A high-school golfer from Michigan was competing at Highland Meadows Golf Course in Sylvania, Ohio, just over the Michigan-Ohio border, when he learned just how mean geese can be. Seems this unlucky player got a bit to close to the goose's nest while walking along the golf course. Here is a photo of this poor guy. It looks pretty bad but fortunately he was unhurt from the attack. Usually birdies are a good thing when competing at golf, but in this case not so much!

Birdies on the golf course are usually a good thing - just not when that bird happens to be a very angry goose.

Yes, they can be violent at time for no reason....Yes they like their territories and they don't like anyone coming there! We have got eleven of them on the farm where I am working now! It is very bad thing to have happened! Thanks!

Yes, no one likes their territory to be invaded. I am seeing an angry goose for the first time

I have seen the video, the goose was pretty angry. Those big birds do not appreciate if you get close to their nests.

The golfer learned a valuable lesson there. Keep your distance!

No one likes or feels safe when their privacy is invaded. That is true with birds and animals. Poor golfer!! Thankfully he is not injured

A first for me too. Usually they just move along when you get near. I guess the goose was protective of its nesting area.

A blow from a goose's wing can break your arm if it connects in the right place. A few golfers have been attacked by kangaroos on our golf courses too.

@dgobucks226 Most golfers know now to wait till they get out of the way or to hit around them.

Kangaroos, now that would be pretty shocking to see! I did not realize the wing was so strong.

@JudyEv I guess the golfers just have to share. The animals no nothing about golf. They just probably thought it was a nice area to hang out, lol.

@dgobucks226 @LadyDuck An animal is never 'mean'. An animal is an animal. The golfer was careless or stupid to play near the nest.

You are right, animals defend their babies and their privacy, we can expect strong reactions if they feel in danger.

I have geese hiss at me a couple times but that attack was something. I bet that golfer stays far away from geese playing golf in the future.
