Interesting you should bring this up. The presumption on many courses is that if your window gets broken by an errant ball, it is not the golfer's responsibility to pay for the repair. Rather it is the problem of the home owner who elected to have a house on a golf course. This is the way it was on the course at our last home. Of course a golfer could always elect to assist in paying for damages.
