Man chased off golf course by wild elk (VIDEO)

Most guys hit the links in hopes of relaxation and solace.

One particular Swedish golfer received quite the opposite during his time spent at the golf course, and got a lot more than he bargained for.

Here’s what the scene looked like:

Run Forest, run! And, sure enough, he did.
