Where is the bridge, or do you have to grab your putter and swim with the gators to putt out?

Spread your wings and fly. No reason to get your feet wet.

Can start a new business. Stu's ride to the green in style.

$ 10 if we row, 5 if you do the work.

Return to be negotiated. Only take cash

I am looking into pontoons for the golf cart, and floating golf balls. I see that they added a new hazard, a water lined sand trap, not sure which club to use on that one.

If the goal was to hit the ball into the water, I would finally hit the green!

If you go by heat index, I suggest a 110-degree wedge today. Gets harder in January with a 35-degree wedge.
