If damage is to your home and property, you pay.
If damage is to a car going by, or parked, and they do not own home next to course, golfer pays.
If ball is deliberately hit away from where it should be hit, it can become a criminal act.

However, a responsible golfer would offer to cover the costs of damages in every case.
We know that always happens here.

Providing it was not intentional then there is no liability, either for damage to a residence or vehicle. It doesn't mean you shouldn't offer to help pay for damages while not admitting guilt.

Would that also not particularly good shot with shotgun or deer rifle also??? The shooter pulled the trigger just like the golfer?

Years ago I was watching a talk show where a young woman ,who had been convicted of vehicular homicide , due to DWI said she didn't feel responsible because she did not intend to hurt anyone , granted a very different situation, but liability doesn't hing on intent, owning a home on a golf course I would think you are accepting some liability, driving on a public roadway considerably less, but in the real world I think you can only count on your insurance
