"because the poos are too massive to be from a woman."

HAFRSFJORD, Norway, July 24 (UPI) -- The groundskeeper of a Norwegian golf course said a mystery pooper targeting course holes must be a man "because the poos are too massive to be from a woman."

Kenneth Tennfjord, groundskeeper at the Stavanger Golf Club, said he has been finding human feces and toilet paper in course holes since 2005.

"He has a couple of favorite holes," Tennfjord told the Rogaland Avis newspaper. "And we know it is a man because the poos are too massive to be from a woman."

"He poos only on weekdays. On weekends I have never found poo on the golf course," Tennfjord said.

I think I'll have to put it in the same category as lamb fries and haggis. "Things I would only eat if I was starving".

And, whenever possible, to look like one."

infrared cameras. They can be hidden in a tree and trained on the holes.

I don't think they are trying to get this guy too hard...

"Didn't that sound like a 'plop' instead of a 'clunk' when my ball fell into the hole?"

Hope they maintain the ball washers.

Perhaps a few port-a-potties strategically place around the course?

I worked at golf course maintenance for awhile, my head groundskeeper would have had that persons head on a spike within a week.

18. He's never seen some of the poos our almost 4-year-old grandchild has completed this year.

One of them was around 8" long and probably 2 1/2 inches in diameter. She has off and on constipation, so they tend to build up, and a nice, warm "splashy bath" in a sitzbath tends to encourage movement.
Her mother's/grandfather's side of the family are known for their massive poos; I've had many a late night date with a plunger between the two of them. (Laz is disabled and can't bend over and plunge, and Kidlet is still all "it's too gross for me to deal with...I'm going to throw up&quot

She was having trouble getting fully potty trained because her (my brother and his ex-wife) were going through a very nasty divorce. Her mother was moving a lot, so poor Nicole's life was really chaotic. My mother and I would watch her as much as we could. She was 4 and wearing pull ups because she was still having accidents. It turns out, my brother and her mother were SPANKING her when she had an accident. So she got in the habit of holding it in, which made her stools big, hard and painful. We just started feeding her a lot of fruits and veggies and encouraging her to drink water. Finally she had a normal, soft BM, and no more accidents. She was so happy and proud!
