Looks like a scene from Caddyshack.

A spark starting that fire is far fetched.

Yep. The spark story is BS.

Maybe he was rubbing his stick too fast in the rough

It's possible CA is super freaking dry out there. nothing was green anywhere near LA.

yea id probably bet on the cigar/cigarette. but its possible. at first the story sounded like the guys swing was so fast it started a blaze. but they say in the article striking a rock.

its possible, very unlikely though.
