Not really, but scared the doo doo out of me. I took my daughter golfing today and saw these two on the course. The first one I walked right by and never saw him.

Must be females as small as they appear. Looks like an American Alligator, any crocodiles in that area or are they further south. Now those bad boys can run.

In a short burst, the alligators can catch your golf cart. I hope you're not playing expensive golf balls!

All I see is a giant gator tail filet blackened and served with a side of crawfish étouffé with rice and some jambalaya to start with sweet tea and all the garlic bread you could ever eat! Then you finished off with a little café cubano and some key lime pie!!! Yummie..
