The man was not uninjured, according to police. The mountain lion then apparently ran off.
Police say the Golf Course has also spotted what appears to be mountain lion paw tracks in the sandy areas along the course.
Nampa Police and Fish and Game officers are on the scene.
There have been a number of reported sightings of the mountain over the past few weeks, mainly in Ada County, along the Boise River.
