This is a true story from Palm Beach Florida (the proof is at the end) :
  The first foursome of the day played together to the 5th hole
  where one impatient golfer went ahead of the group. The remaining
  three, thinking that the impatient golfer finished without them and
  was waiting at the nineteenth hole wasn't concerned with his
  absence. After waiting 2 hours for his return and his car still in
  the parking lot the threesome notified the club and the search was
  on.  Of course the impatient golfer was not located but his clubs were
  found on the seventh hole.

  Three days later, Ole Mose was spotted on the seventh hole and
  was an immediate

suspect.  Ole Mose was an American Croc.
  that was an infrequent course visitor for over 20 years.
  Not too much concern was ever given Ole Mose whom had always
  made a hasty retreat whenever he saw anyone coming.
  To make a long story even longer, after the course officials, SPCA,
  lawyers, citizens groups, Mayor,Palm Beach PD  and the American
  Crocodile Association of So. Fl. it was decided that to put everyone's
  mind at ease, Ole Mose should be unzipped.  And here is the result.


  There must be something learned from this;  maybe something about
  being patient with your golf game or maybe something about safety in
  numbers!
