A SPOKESMAN for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission said trappers captured the alligator that attacked Albert Miller. The alligator weighed about 190 pounds. (PROVIDED TO THE LEDGER)

That’s one tough water hazard.

One doesn’t have to out-run a gator, one simply has to outrun his golf partner.

Someone’s getting a new alligator golf bag.

Does a 12 gauge in the golf bag count against the number of clubs you can have in the bag?
I'm not a golfer. But I wouldn't approach a body of water in Florida without a firearm in my hand.

It would be nice of the Lake Ashton Golf and Country Club if they’d extend an invitation to POTUS to play their course.

LOL! That's just wrong. PETA needs to picket you. Advocating poisoning a poor gator.

His ‘miracle of the month”? Would think this his miracle of a lifetime. Good e-mail reminder for any/all, golfers in Florida.

We used to play on a course in Lake Charles, Louisiana that had quite a bit of rough around one side of one of the greens. Locals knew if they hit their ball in that rough to just leave it for the snakes - male newbie golfers not from the area often did not believe the stories and often found out the hard way.

I will never understand why anyone would go anywhere near fresh water in Florida.
