PGA Tour golfer Tripp Isenhour killed a rare, protected red-shouldered hawk.
Isenhour was shooting a TV show at the Grand Cypress Golf course.
The hawk was squawking, disrupting their shot. Isenhour began hitting balls at the bird who was 300 yards away.
The hawk got closer, 75 yards away, giving Isenhour another shot.
Isenhour said "I'll get him now," and aimed for the hawk.
After the 6th ball nearly got him, Isenhour got excited, and fired a couple more balls. One of them hit the bird which fell to the ground bleeding.
The killing was not caught on video.
Unlike this famous bird killing footage.

Fuck the birds. We shoot birds all the time. He did not know it was protected. If he had knowledge then it is a different story. The fact that he hit the bird was amazing. Congratulations Tripp
