Golfer distracted by 'a nice rack' shanks tee shot in the direction of large bull elk, wisely grabs a new ball

Golfing in Estes Park, Colorado is already an adventure even when you're not shanking tee shots in the direction of nearby large bull elks.

That's partly due to the antics of one of the bull elk named Smash.

He's been known to give chase after trucks and golf carts that get too close for comfort.

If you hit a golf ball in his direction, like this woman unfortunately did, it's best to take whatever penalty may come and reach for another golf ball.

She took a quick look down the fairway, lined up her shot, then hit the ball right in Smash's direction.

She reached for a new tee and had another ball tossed her way.

Even with her golf club in hand, she wasn’t about to take her chances.

"She had to abandon her original drive because it landed right next to Smash but her second shot looked good!" The golfer had a good excuse for shanking her tee shot .

A woman claiming to be the one who hit the ball toward the feisty elk bull responded with, "That was me! Lol I might have been a bit distracted everyone likes a nice rack." VIRAL VIDEO SHOWS MASSIVE ELK SMASH CAR WINDOW WITH BRUTE FORCE IN COLORADO It's hard to argue with that.
