Default gator on golf course

Took this photo from LSL of the golf course. Then noticed the gator in the sand trap.
The course is palmer.

Dang!

Is he going to use a sand wedge?

Thanks for posting the pic. More evidence that gators can wind up just about anywhere in TV!

But NOT my hand.

We have a gator that visits us at our new pool that must come over from Kilimanjaro, which is just a couple of houses from us. He didn't bring any golf clubs with him. Look at the right side of the picture.

Default At least a gator has an excuse

This explains why I see so many foot prints in the bunkers that are not raked. Who knew gators wore golf shoes?

If I played golf and hit a ball into this sand trap I would just admit that a lost ball.

Word is that gaters do sun themselves near there quite often.

Probably better than maybe having to try swimming the butterfly stroke with one arm.
