Default Hoppin' mad!
I cannot imagine anyone ever hitting into a group that is on the green from 120 yards away, ever, anywhere, anytime.....

If what I described above is what happened and it happened to me I cannot imagine how angry I would be. If someone with me was hurt I would get the name of the person that hit the golf ball and witnesses from their group. Could be a nice law suit here, or at least scare the **** out of them as I collected info for one. If no one got hit, I would alert the ambassador of the details in no uncertain terms.

If I have the facts wrong based on the posts, I apologize for my over reaction...

PS. As gracie stated in her post subject, you must wait until the folks have driven away before you hit up to an executive green, a policy which IMO should also be followed on most holes on championship courses.
