I agree with you Sandtrap, that sometimes you just have to do the right thing and man up.
It just seems wrong to think that someone can break a window, take no responsibility, and happily continue playing golf.
And that is not a "holier-than-thou" statement.
But it's not black and white, one way or another. It's complicated as most things are in life. I will tell anyone that I broke their window. I would first call the starter shed and tell them to look into it just in case someone got hurt and they might need help. I just won't pay for the window because they wanted to live where golf balls go and not protect themselves.
