Bandon Police Report--Pulsating White Light. Is it Shivas?
« on: December 13, 2008, 06:52:35 PM »
I have a google news alert for bandon dunes.  This just came in, from Dec. 2 police report.

3:05 a.m., officer observed extremely large pulsating white light in area of Bullards Beach; enroute to check. Appeared to be coming from Bandon Dunes Golf Resort; possibly working on green

Eric;

Most likely we were burning gorse.
At night, to take advantage of wind direction that will take smoke away from the resort, down the coast, and out to sea.
Not an everyday occurance, but common enough this time of year to feel comfortable with this guess.

Weird.  I saw that light the other night when we came up to the Lodge for dinner ... but I did not figure out what it was. 

At first I thought I had been fooled by the moon on the western horizon, but it didn't come up until later.  This was a VERY bright white spotlight, out by the clifftops or possibly down on the beach.  Definitely not a gorse fire.

If a player insists on playing his maximum power on his tee-shot, it is not the architect's intention to allow him an overly wide target to hit to but rather should be allowed this privilege of maximum power except under conditions of exceptional skill.

Could it have been hunters spotlighting?

Tom Doak and Tom Jefferson---It would be interesting if the two of you could align on the gorse fire possibility, but I think that George Bahto may have it right....

Have they filmed Golf in the Kingdom yet?  It might be Shivas, or perhaps there is some kind of vortex being formed....with the visioning and building of Old MacDonald generating or releasing some sort of energy...

I know I should have bought into that movie when I had the chance!  ;)

If you click on the link that I provided, there is also a much less interesting story than that white light, but one which made me laugh anyway....

Tom (Jefferson, that is),
Potentially, you are correct.  The light was either the mini-ex and/or the flames and/or a nearby crab boat (thanks Tondy).
