I found the actual article on the internet. It appears that most of the balls are just landing in their yard but they have had some significant damage. Here is a link:

My wife and her mom will be there 3/1 (her mom moving into Providence). I'll be in KC until our home here sells; hopefully won't be long as it is in a desirable neighborhood north of KC.

The house was there 7 years before the golf course. The golf course has has 3 different owners. Sometime they get 200 balls a day landing on their property. I think the golf course should be held liable since the house was there first and the course did not take any measures to protect the house. Instead of a golf course what if it was a shooting range? There was a golf course I use to play called Ramblewood in Mt. Laurel, NJ . There were houses built around the course. The golf course owners want to sell the course to building investors but were prevented because the residents were sold golf course lots and they have to remain golf course lots. Otherwise the houses would unfairly depreciate. |

unlikely??? try living on the right side of the fairway 150 yards out and say that!

Yep! If you live 150 yards from the tee boxes or the green and on the right side you certainly are much more likely to get hit. I was in real estate for 41 years and whenever someone bought a home from me that was on a course, I told them of my personal experience but that I would never tell anyone that "you will never get hit". Few did, except those, apparently like you, that lived in that perfect spot. Hope those who damaged your property have fessed up and made it right with you.

Best of luck in selling your home. My wife's mother, sister, brother-in-law, two nieces and their husbands live in Blue Springs.

When my wife started her career with DOJ, she lived in Blue Springs. A lot of changes in 28 years.

And the ideology of envy?
What does this mean? |

I think what Kitty meant by the ideology of envy is something like this;
Some people can afford to live on higher priced lots on the golf course. Probably due to working hard, working long hours, sacrificing a lot along the way, being conservative in expenditures, waiting to retire, living carefully and saving their money. And some people cannot afford to live on higher priced lots on the golf course. Sometimes the golf cart lot livers are envied due to no bad deed of their own. No one knows for sure, but I don't think we have many drug dealers living on those expensive lots. And if the people who live on a golf course lot can afford them...then enjoy them thoroughly. You worked hard and you deserve it Kitty. You carried the world's problems on your back and in your heart. I hope you enjoy the view and the lovely home for a very long time.

I've played 6 times since arriving in January and I haven't seen a golf ball smash a window yet. Many of those playing can't break a window because their ball doesn't get up in the air that high.
