The golf course was partially shut down for Trump as he played and agents were a few holes ahead of him when they noticed the firearm poking through a fence, Bradshaw said.
Golfers are visible from the fence line at several areas around the perimeter of the property.
When Trump golfs, agents in golf carts usually secure the area several holes ahead as a precaution.
An armored vehicle is usually brought onto the course to quickly shelter Trump should a threat arise.
The Republican was in Florida this weekend after a Friday night rally in Las Vegas. His plans for Sunday had not been made public though he is known to be a keen golfer.
