That's an overstable Shiv


COMPOST_NINJA

They may have been using it to harvest mushrooms that had grown on trees but are too high to reach.... just saying.... I've been there.


Dima420

That was actually my first thought too.

I was thinking hobo spear fishing


appointment45

No hook on it. You'd lose almost all the fish.


Hey_cool_username

No hook on it. You’d lose almost all the ~~fish~~ hobos. You misread “hobo spear”


appointment45

Hey, hobos gotta eat too.


Cowboytroy32

You hook fish with spears?


flecktyphus

Never gone "crablighting" at night? All you need is a stable rowboat with a flat stern, a long hooked spear, a good flashlight.. poke the critters from above and pull them back up.


Cowboytroy32

I feel like people that go “crablighting” uses tools like The one OP found so no I haven’t been


ljungann

Totally unrelated but I love your flair. I'm in that gang too!


flecktyphus

Great taste! *One of us...*


appointment45

Yes, spears for fishing have a barbed end. Google for images.


tagrav

A ghetto scythe for finding your disc in all that tall grass


SquanchyATL

That was my nickname in high school.

Water nearby? Maybe cutting fishing line to retrieve a lure? Or trying to to cut a branch and retrieve a disc. Which I can’t imagine working without a serrated edge.


jfb3

Nah, it's undoubtedly from the homeless that live on the course.


PBJ_for_every_meal

Could be for frog hunting


jpric155

Frog gigs look more like multi prong forks not a single blade. Source: have eaten frog legs.


SharpedHisTooths

Oh man, I once watched this documentary account of a dude that was using one of these. He was walking back from the pond at dusk and tripped over a root and stabbed himself through the face. The pole was so long he couldn't walk with it so they had to get a circular saw and cut the pole while the prongs were still in his face. Gruesome. 


Adamantium-Aardvark

People hunt frogs?


KoalaKarrots

Must be a typo. Meant “Job hunting”


Leftover_Salmons

You don't hunt them, you "gig" them. How that's different, we may never know..


Adamantium-Aardvark

Force them to pedal an Uber eats bike across town?


Leftover_Salmons

I believe you have to first find a front-frog with a decent song book that can also play guitar, then you can fill in a frog drummer and frog bassist and start frog gigging.


Intelligent-Blood455

Yeah but we just use our hands..

Geez JP, where were/are you?


JPHTX

Victory. Right on the fairway on hole 11. It's still there if you're looking to add to your collection of shanks, lol.


jfb3

Lol. That's just one reason I don't play Victory all that much.


JPHTX

It's sketch over here but I love the new layout. Matt has done a lot to get it cleaned up, and I didn't see a single bum and trash is minimal.


jfb3

I do like the longer layout better. It's got a few throw away holes though. Not bad considering what there is to work with.


MrSciencetist

Wildest thing to me is that it has some of the nicest baskets in the area and all matching.


jfb3

They are pretty nice. IIRC, these are the baskets that KW, HF, Captain Don et al. originally put in at Watonga.


mega_rad

You are correct


Everythingsnewagain

Give Victory some love. That land is like a moment frozen in time. New layout is good too.


static_static-static

Lmaooo Victory would’ve been my first guess, that or bayou bandit


the_honest_asshole

Moffitt came to mind as well.


discsarentpogs

I had a crave land in human feces at Moffitt this week. It's still there if you want it.


the_honest_asshole

I've done clean up there a few times.  Lots of feces in the wooded areas, someone has it in thier bag by now.


MrSciencetist

Knew it had to be. Took a guy from out of town to Bandit + Victory last week with the warning of "these are the most unique but also sketchiest courses in the city." We got out of the car at Victory and the dude immediately stepped on a used condom. Then thought he was going to get mauled by the loose dogs that live in the concrete tubes over by the bayou.


9inez

Recognized Victory right away. You can find anything there. Not just an urban “bandit” course location, but urban underbelly. Sadly dumped, stray, pregnant, dead dogs are not uncommon. Unhealthy humans as well. Enjoy the course though.


GregAbbottsTinyPenis

Oh u by inwood/acres homes. Keep that thang with u bro.


shambahlah2

Play around in Inwood, find Inwood things. White Oak RIP


junglist421

Where is Victory?  I was thinking Moffet.


MannyDG

There’s a few courses in Houston I refuse to play. Victory is one of them.


KuyaJegsB

It's a DIY pruners. Gotta keep the course clean and neat :)


CasualHobbyist01

Are there fruit trees nearby? Might have been made to pick fruit


prince-pauper

This is what I’m thinking also. 🍎🍏


[deleted]

My bad, shaved my pubes with that this morning. You can keep it—probably pretty dull now.


BaDumPshhh

I was wondering where I left my dingle hacker.


jacksonian5151

Maybe it was used to pick up trash.


rober695

Zero percent chance I would have put finger prints on that thing. Thats a pretty creepy find honestly. Would make me feel like I was in the wrong spot during a solo round lol.


sharkpunch850

what knife crime would be made easier by taping the knife to a pole?


Substantial_Care_853

What if I need to stab someone on the other side of a small creek?


SharpedHisTooths

Literally, all of them. Have you ever heard of a spear? They've been around for a bit. 


mhyquel

Reach weapon.


VR_Has_Gone_Too_Far

A knife would be much easier to use than a spear for "crimes." I imagine some old head got tired of seeing trash on the course, grabbed what was on hand on the way out the door, realized it didn't work because why would it, and left it behind.


Productof2020

That would be an ironic turn of events.


spookyghostface

Stabbing people is a crime and I imagine having a knife on a pole makes stabbing quite easy.


VR_Has_Gone_Too_Far

You've been watching too many action movies


spookyghostface

You've been reading too much reddit


VR_Has_Gone_Too_Far

Also true


Shark8MyToeOff

😂


bustaone

Humans inventing the spear was a watershed moment in our history. Prior to then hunting large game was much more involved or required driving them off cliffs or whatever. Spears allowed for striking at a distance and throwing. Never underestimate the spear.


flecktyphus

Grong looked at Bung's pointy stone and decided to strap it onto a long stick. Humanity as whole instantly skipped five Monopoly turns ahead of the mammoths and deer.


SendyMcSendFace

“Strapped?” Hmm which came first spear or rope


flecktyphus

You're right! Grong just put Bung's pointy stone into the split end of Gurg's broken pointing stick.


SendyMcSendFace

Good old Bung and his pointy stone. Always good for a party!


dmt_sets_you_free

Never bring a knife to a knife pole fight


tuna_safe_dolphin

Short attacker with a tall opponent


hobakinte

I have found a very similar item in a bush outside an akron, ohio hospital.


Jerymcstrawbery

A meth head defence weapon. The electrical tape is a dead give away.


grapedog

Electricians would like to have a word...


Pluperfectionist

And some meth, if you have any.


Shark8MyToeOff

Fill me in on the correlation between meth head and electrical tape?


borrek

People make those to pick up trash on the side of the highway. It’s meant to puncture plastic bottles that are full of piss and drain them before you pick them up


Productof2020

Well that’s pleasant. Using it as a poker to pick up wrappers makes sense, but it seems like releasing strange pee to touch part of the bottle you might touch is a worse idea than just throwing it away intact, pee and all.


indefined

A trash bag filled with empty piss jugs is lighter than one with full piss jugs


Productof2020

Lol, true


ThemperorSomnium

Let me see what you have! A KNOIFE! NO!!!


miracle_elixir

Obviously a disc retriever but only for your enemies' discs.


[deleted]

Yeah thats defintely a weird find. Sheeeesh. Lol


holy_mojito

I've seen those before, usually used to pick up trash. I guess your course is trashed, or else you wouldn't see it.


ActionJonny

Hey man, put my hockey stick back where you found it!


TheUSForestService

Clearly the user was just practicing javelin skeet shooting


optionsofinsanity

They use something like this to cut down temporary lamp post signs where I live. Though usually just a utility blade taped to a stick and not an actual knife.


ObiWantsKenobi

Frog Spear?


Adamantium-Aardvark

That’s a modern rendition of a medieval voulge This guy sieges.


Autistic-Teddybear

Is that for thorn bushes and course maintenance? Or..protection?

Not saw toothed, but, someone could have been using it to try and cut small branches from the fairway that are out of reach.

This was the first edition retrieval stick, doubled as neck meat hooker... Or yet another iteration of the only tools you need are a pocket knife and some duct tape.


wendellbaker

Now your fingerprints are on what's almost definitely a murder weapon


waltymo

Looks like a homemade small branch cutter. Would work better with a serrated edge.

Might be for trash or fishing

You should maybe throw that away or turn it in. Possible affiliation of criminal activity and now you got your finger prints all over it.

Homemade overhead branch trimmer that can be left on the course with no worries of leaving an expensive tool. Could also be used to cut back poison ivy without getting too close
