Since I am not a golfer, my immediate reaction to the original poster's subject line was that the question was about the distance between houses!
I was prepared to relate a story about when my older daughter bought a mobile home in a mobile home park and I worried about how close she was to neighbors. She quickly reminded me that our home in St. Louis, where she grew up, was less than 10 feet from the neighbors on either side of us! The fact that that home wasn't at all mobile didn't occur to me as a distinction!
Naturally, now that I live here in TV, where one neighbor is almost exactly 10 feet away, while the other is more because we are on pie-shaped lots pleases my daughter no end!
