Damn alligator bit my hand off

That's terrible...........but hahahahahaha! I keep thinking about chubs saying that and its ridiculous!

on a lighter note. I feel bad for the old man though.
 
This frightens the heck out of me. I am going to Florida in a couple of weeks to visit friends and get a couple of rounds of golf in.

Two years ago I went down about this same time of year, and the people at the golf course said that it was mating season for the alligators so be careful. I hit a ball into the shallow end of a small water hazard where some tall grass was growing. I took a penalty strokes and called it a lost ball. There was no way in hell I was going to go look for that ball. My buddy, however, went right in and started looking. But then, he's a cheap SOB and would have fought the alligator to get the golf ball.

If the water is too murky or covered in algae, then don't risk it... If you can see your ball you will be able to see it coming, just use a club to get it out and don't reach down for it...

I'd be more worried about cottonmouths than I would the Gators.
 
I golfed Kiawah Island in South Carolina, and they talked a lot about the gators. Luckily, it was 100 degrees and humid as hell, so they were all laying in deep water. Still, I had one ball sitting about three feet from the water, and I did not take any practice strokes.
 
Friends of ours relocated back to their native Florida about five years ago. They live on several acres outside Orlando and have a pond on their property which is ocassionally occupied by a gator. They think it's cute and snap photos to email back to friends in Iowa. Those left-over dinosaurs kinda give me the willies...
 
i know someone with a couple of eight foot long gators for sale. If he doesn't sell them soon they will end up in his smoker. They might already be there now due to this weather.
