Responsibility? Errant golf ball does not fly on its own. Someone, usually, hits it. Ball flies into neighbors yard. Ball strikes neighbor. Neighbor dies. Golfer, a. retrieve ball and return to game, b. calls for help.

According to most of the responders sound like they would choose option 'a' and not bother with the corpse the inadvertently created. No different than breaking a window, I guess. Hmm?
