Reminds me of a cat that used to live at a house off of one of the fairways of San Jose Muni in Calif. He would run out of his yard and take your golf balls if they were in good shape. If it was a beatup golf ball he would leave it.
Locals learned to use a beatup ball when playing that hole.

When I took up the game in the early 90s I was playing with 2 friends, one a recent college grad and the other guy a retired USAF Sargent-Major. The 3some ahead of us included 2 former Oakland Raider football players - Jack Tatum and Raymond Chester. Jack Tatum's nickname was the assassin and was probably the hardest hitting football player pound for pound in his day. Raymond Chester was a tight end, probably about 6' 4" tall.
They were playing slow, so the retired sargent-major tells them to snap-crap and pick up the pace. My other friend and I said "Do you realize who two of those guys are?". The sargent-major says " I don't give a damn if they played in the NFL, they need to shake a leg!"
My friend and I moved to the opposite side of the fairway to walk down the fairway because we didn't want to be tackling dummies for Tatum and Chester.
I guess Tatum and Chester figured the old sargent-major might be crazy and do something, so they picked up the pace and and moved quickly for the remainder of the round.
