I've played a few courses in my lifetime that were surrounded by multi-million dollar house and yes, those palladium windows are very expensive. That said, up north a lot of the courses have signs at the first tee box stating that the golfer is responsible for any errant shots that cause damage to homes. Perhaps private courses/country clubs have different rules. I've been lucky "knock on wood" that I haven't sent one that far left or right, but I've seen many do it and take off like the big yellow belly chickens they are! I'm sure your parents raised you to "do the right thing and make amends" when you are wrong. Man up and pay for your consequences. The law may state otherwise, but it's the honorable thing to do. Ok, I'm done with my rant for the evening!
