All of the sudden this ball lands in our yard. The next thing we know, this guy comes running across Pinellas with his pitching wedge and before we could say anything he hits his ball from our yard back across Pinellas toward the green!!
We were shocked! I did manage to say “Next time please don’t hit from our yard”, too stunned to think of much else to say!
He yells over his shoulder, “just giving your grass a trim!”
We were both dumbstruck! He was not only rude but so arrogant and entitled. Obviously knows nothing of golf etiquette, or etiquette in general.
He also doesn't know anything about the rules of golf seeing as how your yard is obviously out of bounds.
