Assumed Risk
A consideration in buying our house on a golf course was how often we would be hit by golf balls, not if it would happen. We are on an executive course half way down on the left, non-slice for most, side of the fairway. We would not have bought the property if it had been on the right side of the fairway. We also would have passed on property next to a tee box because of noise.
My guess is all people who purchased golf course frontage property also assumed their property may be hit by golf balls at times. We have not had any damage in nine years, but we have found a few balls in the yard. We really enjoy seeing the golfers and having a vista of the course instead of 'kissing lanais.'
