Golfer killed by falling tree on golf course

The owners of the Alderbrook Golf House in Tillamook, Oregon, said there was a "tragic accident" on the course that claimed the life of a golfer named Bob Dunn.

A golfer in Oregon died Saturday after getting pinned by a falling tree on the golf course.

The owners of the Alderbrook Golf House in Tillamook, Oregon, said there was a “tragic accident” on the course that claimed the life of a golfer named Bob Dunn.

The golf course did not specify what happened, but local reports say he was hit and crushed by a 20-inch wide falling alder tree.

According to KPTV, Dunn was taken to a local hospital, where he later died.

“Bob was not only a dedicated member of our golf community, but also a beloved friend to many,” the golf course’s owners said on its Facebook page. “His presence on the course brought joy and camaraderie, and he will be profoundly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.”

Fellow golfers told The Oregonian that Dunn, 68, was popular and known for walking the course. He was retired and spent several months each year living in San Juan del Sur in Nicaragua. The rest of his time was spent north of Tillamook on the Oregon Coast.

“We were just in the wrong spot at the wrong time,” Hugh Ragle, who was playing golf with Dunn and Dunn’s son when the accident happened, told The Oregonian. “That tree came down without any wind. Just a crack, and boom, it was down.”
