When we moved to a golf course lo, we were extremely nice to golfers even offering a beer from our lanai tapper. However, I am not as friendly now. On several occasions,I have found golfers in my FRONT yard searching for balls. I have had my garden decoration stolen-witnessed by a neighbor, people hitting a ball well within my property, and one man replied !" ....you", when I asked him to get out of my flowers. It is unnerving to get out of the shower and see strangers walking by the window or eating with someone two feet outside the window. Usually not only the golfer is searching in my bushes, but he has brought the rest of the foursome.
Some golfers are very polite but others , oh well. I guess they can't afford to buy a ball but they sure have nice carts. I do enjoy the increasing rare polite ones and have even offered shelter during storms or a ride back to the parking lot to those walking the course during inclement weather
I guess my advice is if in doubt stay out. A friendly hello would go a long way.
