[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. The golf course in question is Needwood golf course in moco. I am genuinely curious for those who golf, what you think about the distance to the road, the sidewalk, and the lack of any kind of meaningful fencing. Again, I don't golf but there are lots of golf courses in moco and I don't remember any of them being placed so close to a road and a very well traveled side walk/bike path.[/quote]

I’m a golfer. It is, unfortunately, very common for courses to border on roads.

A net would be expensive, would need to be maintained, and many would probably complain it is an eyesore. The better answer is probably trees, which is what many courses do.

I have seen golfers hit cars. [b]Golfers have it drilled into them you are responsible for your shots, [/b]and the golfer should have come over and offered to pay, just like someone denying your car in a parking lot.

I suspect this is unlikely to happen to you again. [/quote]

I agree but this was a public course. People are idiots in public courses. They don’t know what they’re doing nor do they care.  My guess is you had an idiot trying to drive a ball somewhere they shouldn’t have.

Our course is bordered by 3 major roads. We have no nets. The course is designed that you tee off parallel to the roads. You have to be a pretty horrific golfer to slice it into the road. I’m pretty bad and I’ve never come near hitting it into the road. [/quote]
