One individual, however, expressed scepticism and called the video fake. To which, Peachey replied, “Come play golf at our club and see if you still think it is fake.” She further added about who captured the video. “It was one of our groundsmen who took it and passed it on to the members to be careful on the course as the cobras are out.
