Let me know when he starts finding the little *******s full of golf balls!

You could squeeze them out and re-use them!

You can just wait, They will come out all on their own *;-)
That is why they have those ball washers at the tee.

BTW it is not the little *******s that bother you, it is the big ones.

If you wait for that to happen, you may have to watch out for the
projectiles!


And stay away from the water trap!

Looks like Myrtle Beach. 'Gators everywhere, but I didn't see any that big. I think the biggest was
about 6-7 feet, right on the edge of the fairway, close to a pond. Just like in the picture.

Greg, I was thinking of the more inland courses. Then again, maybe you
were too.

There are plenty of 'gators inland as long as there is some water
around, and there's a lot of that in Florida. They are not salt water
critters although they're OK with brackish.

There was a 12 footer in Sanibel when I lived there and he hung out at
the beach across the street from my house (between the Hilton, now
Sanibel inn and the Tortuga Beach Club)
The gulf was no problem from him. That was also the gator that ate ice
cream and hot dogs at the Dairy Queen. They would send Bird Westal out
to get him and take him back over to the Ding Dong preserve. Sanibel
was a "no kill, no relocate off the island" alligator place in those
days.

It was all good fun until a few years ago when he ate a real estate
woman. He is a suitcase now.



We all know that rednecks, not gators, are indigenous to south Florida
and that the interlopers should be rounded up and shot. :)

'Crackers' are indigenous to Florida. Rednecks are from Georgia, home of all that beautiful, red,
Georgia clay.

Redneck is not particularly derogatory. Jeff Foxworthy made $20
million being a redneck and Dan Whitney made almost twice that,

It does convey a certain self sufficiency and being able to make just
about anything from whatever you have laying around the yard.


The use of the words "Florida" and "Redneck" would be derogatory if the
poster has used them together in the past in a derogatory or trollish
manner...;) But we know everyone is being good, right???
