A four-year-old knocks golf balls into a ball collector’s cart with uncanny accuracy—which yes, kind of makes him an asshole, but since I’ve done this myself on numerous occasions, he’s a funny asshole.

  4. Totally a dick move, but I have to say that that is really fucking impressive. I was at one time a 4 handicap golfer and I would have had trouble doing what that kid just did. He’s got some talent, he just needs to learn to use it for something other than annoying people trying to do their job.

  6. I don’t frequent the driving range that often and when I do the picker is never out. Is it really a dick move to try to hit it?

  8. Hitting the cart is a hell of a lot more fun than actual golf. That kid is talented. I could never do that once, much less four straight times. @5, is “beauty” limited to Canadians?

  10. I have no problem with golfers chipping (is that the right term for the stroke they’re doing?) at the ball collector.

    I have a problem with asshole golf-range owners/managers sending their hourly employees out into what is effectively a combat zone while golfers–some of whom are assholes, some of whom are decent people, none of whom have consistently good enough aim to be anything other than a threat to the poor jerk driving the ball collector lob those little missiles in his general direction.

    You should only be sent to collect the balls when the range is closed.

  11. I dunno about the rightness or wrongness of aiming at the cart or putting the cart guy into the cart. I just want to observe that, while that kid’s behavior bears a close resemblance–in maturity and gravitas–to the behavior of my regular foursome, his swing is better than the swings of at least 3 of us.
