Hmmm, let see. In one case I would have caused damage with a real financial impact and would be willing to accept responsibility. In the other case I would be walking on their grass, in much the same way the electric and water meters readers walk on the grass, but I wouldn't do it if I was disturbing the owners. It has been my experience that if golf lot owners do not want people retrieving golf balls they will put up a sign. I also jay walk on occasion.
