I've seen the "Old man stay off my turf" behavior before. Only it was on a golf course 30 years ago. Some of my buddies and I worked the late shift and would hit the links after work. We played public courses all around central Ohio. A lot of times we'd run into old guys that played the same course every day. They acted like they owned the place and would try to order others around, or jump in front of us. Of course this behavior got them no where with a bunch of young, full of pizz and vinegar cops. The only difference was that they had a 9 iron in their hand instead of a 3" 12 gauge. I'm sure this old fella felt like he owned the lake. Who knows what makes someone snap. My old Dad was a hot head all his life and would fight with little provocation. He'd hit you with whatever he had in his hand without considering the consequences.
