There are several Threads about Gators and snakes here on TOTV. Reaching into the tall grasses can land you in the hospital and "too sick to die". I've seen a golfer who was bitten by a pigmy rattlesnake and he spent the night in Leesburg hospital "too sick to die" his words. Just east of Leesburg in a lake Harris canal a 11-12 year old boy (while visiting his grandparents) was eaten alive by an alligator. This happen about 9-10 years ago---almost too horrible to mention.
We live in Florida. No need to be paranoid about Alligators or snakes but we definitely need to stay out of their habitat. No golf ball is worth going there.
