So tonight I had alot on my mind and just wanted to get out of my dorm to kinda reflect, so I decide to take a walk around campus and explore the places I havent been.
So I walk around the usual areas but I had never really been over to the golf courses, they are sorta ontop of a hill and offer a great view of the town. Good place to be completely alone and reflect I thought. Plus it was kind of a thrill being completely alone in the middle of the golf course at night. Well I turns out I got more of a thrill then I bargained for. I get out onto one of the greens that offers a good view and sort of lean agains the tree. Ive been sitting there about 30 seconds when from behind I hear... BAWAWAWAWAWAWA!!!!!! WTF?  I look behind me and there is a large white dog about 50 yards behind me and closing. Fight or flight quickly take over, Ive got my kershaw speed-safe, but I know a determined dog rarely lets go even when it is severly injured. Plus I really dont want to get into some legal battle with people why I stabed their dog at 1:30 on a golf course. What did I do? Ran like hell!! With one hand on my knife I hightailed it towards the nearest lit area. I dont think I have ever ran so fast in my life, I could see the dog behind me chasing me, "BAWAWAWAWA!!.... BAWAWAWAWA!!!" Ahhh crap this is not way to die, mauled to death on a golf course by some dog.  Finally about a 1/4 mile later I got to the edge of a lit parking lot and the dog backed off, I could still hear it barking so I decided to sprint another 1/4 just to be shure.  I went out tonight wanting to relax and reflect, I ended up getting a workout and a brown spot on my shorts.  Lesson learned, walking alone on a golf course late at night is not a good idea. Flame suit on for what I am shure were numerous tactical errors..

Didn't anyone tell you not to run with knives? By the way, dogs instinctively chase things that are running from them.
I liked your story though. |

Yeah I thought about that the moment before I decided to run, but in my .5 seconds of thought I figured it was better to get mauled in a lit area where someone might see me rather than in the middle of a dark golf course. If it got to me I was gonna stab the hell out of it. ETA knife was still in my pocket when I was running, I just had my hand on it. Last thing I needed was to trip and fall and stab myself.

Most likely if you had stood your ground it wouldn't have attacked you. But what balls would it take to stand there while a big ass dog is running at you!!!!!

That a good story and I'm glad
nothing happened. Question how long is the blade on the knife you had? Even though you would have been bit you would have came out on top with a blade in your hand. |

Its about a 3.5 inch blade, I ALMOST forgot it as I was walking out the door. It would be a really bad idea to be walking at 1am and not be armed in some capacity. Im confident that I would have come out on top with the knife, but I wasnt about to try and find out. |

Around here if you get caught with a gun on campus (and you are a student) you will get expelled and may even get some sort of criminal charges (I think there is a state law). |

Last time I went to the golf course for personal reflection, I did so at 3 AM. As I layed by the pond staring at the stars, three beautiful Naiads came forth from the water and began to perform oral sex on one another as I watched. After what seemed like hours, they allowed me to hit them like a Herculaen javelin toss.
After I was done, Cerberus came running across the green chased me off the course. |

Are you sure it wasn't Barbara Walters? The only thing that story was missing was the water sprinklers coming on. |

Jesus Christ, I can't believe you have not learned the lesson you yourself mention in the thread title: "Don't go for a walk..ALONE.."
Dammit, if you had taken someone with you and they were slower, the dog is decoyed. If they were faster, you whip out that sticker and hamstring the guy/girl. Either way, you're better off. Don't they teach you anything in college? |

Now what really would have been funny is if you ran with the knife in your hand, fell, stabbed yourself and dropped the knife while you were tumbling, and THEN got mauled by the dog.
Man, that's movie material right there. |

That's why I don't think the dog would have attacked. Either it's old and out of shape, or it didn't want to catch him.

I'm not sure if "staring down" a dog actually works, but I like to think it does. Once I was taking a walk and I had my bersa .380. I come around the corner and there is this pitbull on a lease. The person walking this bad boy was a tiny woman, had to go 90 lbs soaking wet. I don't know if i startled the dog by coming around that building or what but it growled and began to come towards me. Clearly by the womans reaction she didn't expect to run into anyone. She started yelling "NO, NO *insert dogs name* NO!" and began pulling on the leash. I had a winter coat on so I figured if i had to I'd give the dog my left arm (my right hand was back at my gun). I didn't want to be hasty and draw unessesarily but so I just stared the dog right in the eyes and thought as hard as I could "dog, I WILL f***ing kill you, you may bite me but I WILL f***ing kill you." At that point the dog backed down. I don't know if it was just bluffing, or if I made it rethink the attack but I like to think that I scared it hug.gif. |

[KEYBOARD COMMANDO] I would have taken a defensive stance and waited for him to make his leap then I would have grabbed him by his lower jaw and stabbed him in the throat. Then I would have grabbed him by the tail and whirled him around and thrown him like the hammer event in the olympics.
That would have made me hungry so then I would have eaten the knife [/KEYBOARD COMMANDO] |

Pulease...it's quite obvious that any dog that says "BAWAWAWAWA" has a speach impediment. It's not very nice making fun of a poor dogs' disability!!

As a former golf course superintendent, I thought this was going to be a "I got nailed in the ass by a water cannon story."
But yours is still humorous. 96Ag |

You sure triggered the prey instint in that dog.
He's probably telling the opposite story on the dog Internet right now. |
