It amazes me that people who live on golf courses get mad when someone hits their house with a golf ball. WTF do they expect?

2 or 3 years ago I skulled a full 60* from the fairway (trying to attack a tucked pin) and lazered it into the side of a house. It actually hit a gutter and it was loud as hell. Dude comes storming out of his house in boxers and unlaced work boots, yelling obscenities. My buddy yells back, "You live on a golf course moron!", then the guy threw my ball back at us and went back inside. Talk about a tool, lol.

I pulled a drive at my hometown course, and i got a hold of it good too. slammed into the house just to the left of the fairway. Good thing it was a brick house because Im pretty sure it would have went through the wall otherwise.

I got the ball and it compressed so much against the house the entire half of the ball was messed up from the brick. Guy comes out, i offer an apology, he says hey i live on a golf course, it happens .

We were playing in a new development one sunny day, and I hooked my drive right towards the site of a new house being built. It dropped right into the middle of the basement pad that was being poured. I teed up another ball right after I saw 3 laborers throw their arms up signaling "touchdown!". :D
