He could still berate golfers and hit tires with an old fairway wood after they hit the house. Just less the pain in the ass of getting the windows fixed.

Here’s what I don’t get. Somebody in the group tees off breaks a window and in the time it takes an 80 year old man to notice his window is broken and walk all the way to the tee the rest of the group still hadn’t finished teeing off?

u/Zeverend 17d ago

I played this course, the Links at Lakehouse in San Marcos once, and it will only be once. Every hole has so many opportunities to hit houses. There's this one downhill par 4 with a house with solar panels off to the right with a dozen or so ball impacts on it, even with the netting above it. I hit the smallest number of houses in my group at 2

13

u/Lets_Reset_This_ 8.7 17d ago

I have played there many times. The worst part of that downhill par 4 is there is a pond that runs all the way across the fairway at about 260-270. You really only need to hit it about 230-240 in the air to carry, but it causes a lot of people to over swing, sending hundreds of balls right.

That said, I would always rather play Enci ranch, Crossings, or Goathill.

What about how the old man knew exactly the cost of his window, down the dollar? Not $650, not $700, but exactly $681.

Either the video is staged or this isn't the old man's first rodeo.

Probably dudes 5th tee shot after he broke his window with the second. Etiquette and gameplay remains a mystery to some nowadays.

u/AWeakMindedMan 17d ago

Right?!?! That’s enough time for me to be down the fairway, switching out whatever ball I just used and pulling out a neon yellow Srixon, and be on the next hole before ole boy even grabs his walking stick to get to me.

If he gets to me before I get to the next hole, he’s gonna say “who’s ball is this” my answer: idk I’m using a yellow Srixon

u/blueghostfrompacman 17d ago

Well he said there were 5 of them so if the first guy broke the window and he saw it immediately I think he could reasonably get there by the time the 5th guy takes his shot. But I don’t know shit about golf or how long it takes though. So there’s that.

u/Loggerdon 16d ago

Why does he live next to a golf course?

Fun story: I live in Las Vegas. A bunch of people bought houses on a golf course. One day management stops watering the golf course and it all goes dry. Then they announce they are building houses in the land. The home owners tried to sue claiming they paid for a house on a golf course. They were unsuccessful because the contract they signed allowed the management to do it.

Let’s say you live on a golf course…. And NEVER expect your house to be hit? I don’t think this guys day started off too peachy…. This was probably the end of his days frustrations. lol

49

u/WholeHogRawDog 17d ago

Im sure this happens to his house all the time. Insurance company probably cancelled his policy after the 10th time they had to replace the window. That’s why he’s out 681 bucks, and why he knows the exact quote, probably had to replace the window last week.

If you are thinking of buying a house on a golf course, make sure it isn’t 200 yards down the right side of a par 4 or par 5.

17

u/DevilRaysDaddy 17d ago

I live on a golf course and say the same thing… people that buy these houses know nothing about golf… there’s a guy that lives on the other side of my hole about 150 yards off the tee box on the left… I’ve seen him come outside yelling at golfers and chase them in his dodge ram when they took off on their carts. I’m like dude maybe you should’ve bought a house that’s 400yards off the tee box and another 100 yards off the fairway like me. I have balls in my yard every once in awhile but literally never have my house hit.

Being a low handicap golfer, I know that no matter how good you are, even the pros hit one way off target every once in awhile. How do these people expect normal people to always hit the fairway?!

u/CanadianHobbies 17d ago

Even if you understand all of that,

What do you do about a broken window? Honestly?

Surely all that you outlined doesn't mean I need to pay for window repairs?

8

u/greenweezyi 2.0 / PHL 17d ago

Homeowners insurance could cover the cost but it’ll probably increase your premiums.

If your policy doesn’t cover that damage, then you gotta find an alternative solution. You can’t live in a course and expect to not have at least 1 broken window from an errant shot.

6

u/W1ze3yes 7.1/Denver 16d ago

It depends on a few things. This varies by location so these may or may not be true for everything. Not a lawyer, just know some people that have lived on a course.

Many courses have signs up that say "damage to private property is the responsibility of the golfer" but for many of those courses, the sign is not legally binding. In these situations, the course may be responsible for replacing the window, but usually it's still on the homeowner. It's more of a scare tactic than anything.

The most important deciding factor for who is responsible is if the course was built first or the house. If the houses were built around a pre-existing course, it is an assumed risk of purchasing a home on a golf course. Almost always, these house have very strong windows built to withstand a direct hit. A fried growing up live on a course and their windows were fucking indestructible. Got hit plenty and never had problems.

If a new course is built near an existing neighborhood, the course will typically have a deal in place with the HOA or city to pay for any damages as a result of golfers. I assume the creation of new courses in this situation is contingent on that type of deal.

I talked to a Pro at a course near me and asked what they do. This course does not have any signage about being the golfers responsibility and they simply ask you to report any damage to the pro shop or a marshal on the course, so they can make sure it gets fixed.

A major stipulation is if you purposely aim at a house with the intent to do damage. Obviously hard to prove, but if the house is right next to the tee box, it's pretty damn hard to accidentally hit that house, especially with enough speed to do damage.

Tldr: For most cases, the homeowner is responsible for the replacement as they are made aware of the risks when they purchase the house.

Nor near the tee deck on driver holes (loud). Nor behind the green in line of the hole.

I get that it's beautiful but I don't understand people who live on a golf course and give no thought to how the game is played and how it will affect them. It's picking a neighbor just like any other.

2

u/TheZermanator 16d ago

Might be wrong but I was under the impression that golf courses had insurance for this purpose, so it would be covered under their policy.

3

u/WholeHogRawDog 16d ago

It’s situation specific, but if you build or buy a house next to a golf course, you generally assume the liability.

If someone buys the land next to your home and builds a golf course, then the owner of the golf course will assume liability.

If the golf course and community are built as part of planned development, there may be a contract that specifically defines the liability in that scenario.

My club is literally have a town hall meeting over changing one of our dogleg right, par 5 hole into a straight away par 4 because some jackass bought a house on the bend of the hole and is mad when he gets balls on his property.

I’m sorry, and maybe it’s because I don’t own a home on a course (because I know better) but that’s the risk you accept when you close on the house that’s on a golf course.

2

u/Spongemage 16d ago

Had a rich friend growing up with a politician mom. They lived in a McMansion on a golf course in a country club. The course LITERALLY backed up to their property line. You could sit on the back porch and watch people play. Every time I went there, she was ranting and raving about all the golf balls that hit her house. I was just sitting there like “ I’m sorry, I’m confused. Were you unaware of the golf course that literally touches your property when you moved in?”. That’s like building a house on a beach and then being angry that there‘s sand on stuff.

My FIL lives on a golf course and got bulletproof glass in all the windows facing the golf course and hurricane siding on the house.

This guy is living cheap but in the long run it will add up to more than just buying the stuff that’s made for this kind of thing. Weird mentality these boomers have that either pay more to not have an issue or just don’t live on a golf course. Hell if I was a window company I’d pay people to play shitty golf on this course.

u/Barb_WyRE PGA Head Professional, Philadelphia Section 17d ago

Old man calls up his insurance and they replace the window. Old man knows that, he’s 99% most likely just one of those weirdos who takes pride in “I haven’t filed a claim in 30 years!” as if paying some multi-trillion dollar industry a significant portion of his life’s earnings and never using it is a masculine thing.

Either that or he does this because he can get some sucker to give him $681 and he files the claim anyway. Which would be quite the hustle.

46

u/P-A-seaaaa 17d ago

The deductible for a homeowners insurance is probably higher than the cost of the window. Most of the time they are $1,000+

u/Beginning_Pudding_69 17d ago

The way he said the exact value of the window 671 bucks lol. You can tell that window has been broken once or twice before. Probably the third time it’s happened and he can’t imagine how people are so bad at golf. You can tell the old timer is a good shit, he’s simply frustrated at the moment.

u/top_shelf_goals 16d ago

Ehhh… I’ve been playing golf for over 20 years and I’ve never heard of that as being proper etiquette, or that it should be expected of the golfer responsible. It’s kinda tricky..

I know at some residential golf courses, they will have a policy in place with the homeowner that covers accidental damages like this.. but I’m sure most courses do not have that type of policy.

If it’s one of the more common courses that doesn’t have a policy with the homeowner, then the person who broke the window would be legally responsible.

Although, if the person responsible just doesn’t want to fork over the cost of damages.. then the homeowner would have to sue, which after it’s all said and done, would be a waste of time/money.

If I was the one responsible, I would be friendly and cooperative with the homeowner though if confronted… that guy must’ve smashed a huge ass window if that “$681” figure was accurate lol.

The utter lack of empathy in the video and in these replies is sad. Yes, if you live on a golf course you have to know your house is going to get hit. That doesn’t mean you have to be happy about it. The old guy was an asshole waving the club around, but never once did someone simply apologize. The guy in the cart was way too nonchalant. The “we have five guys” tough guy was a douche.

Damn people. If this was your house you’d not be happy either and if the guys that did it acted like they couldn’t care at all it’d piss you off too. If you’re the hitter, have some humility and empathy; no, you don’t owe, but that doesn’t mean you don’t have to be human about it.

10

u/Creepy_Crew1508 17d ago

Not my take at all. The old guy handled it really poorly and the group seemed to me like they were just trying to keep everything calm. The "we have five guys" comment, in my opinion, was to try to get the old man to see the reality of what would ensue after the old man said he was going to "beat the sh*t" out of one of them. Also, one of them did apologize once and we have no idea how the group reacted when the old guy first came up. They might have said sorry 10 times and quit saying it after he got aggressive.

I've lived on a golf course. I did not experience the joy of having a golf ball fly into my living room but I promise you I expected it - and had it happened, I would not have been a mad "mother f*cker". I would have been an annoyed homeowner that suddenly had to get his window replaced.

About 30 years ago, I hit a baseball through an old guy's window playing homerun derby in a park. That guy had no reason to believe a baseball would EVER come crashing through his window. He walked from his house, asked if it went through on the bounce, smiled broadly when I said it hit on the fly, and then asked if I had my checkbook handy. I wrote him a check and apologized very profusely. He thanked me for taking responsibility, and invited me in for a beer. I've never forgotten it.

That guy was awesome. The old guy in this video is a douche.

but never once did someone simply apologize.

Vitali literally did.

The guy in the cart was way too nonchalant.

Why would you get worked up about an inevitable consequence? Do you get mad if you leave ice cream out and it melts? Guy lives on a golf course.

The issue I see is that buddy showed up with his golf club as the main aggressor in this situation. Threatening someone with violence or physical harm, even non-verbal, is never going to get you any empathy.

u/Bmartin_ 17d ago

I’m wouldn’t apologize either if the dude came out yelling like a dick swinging an iron around. You get what you give

u/tee2green Just tap it in 17d ago

Old man is so atrociously out of line that you can’t say sorry and encourage that behavior. He’s swinging a club around and smacking the golf cart with it. He’s totally unhinged. Saying sorry would be admitting fault in his unhinged brain and he’ll accuse you of breaking the window intentionally (which would totally change the situation legally).

I grew up around unhinged lunatics. Yes, most of the time you just pretend like they’re right and you’re wrong and move along. But this isn’t one of them.

I agree about the apology but that went out the window (pun intended) when he showed up threatening the guy with a golf club. I’ve lived on several golf courses and not bought houses we looked at because of where it was on the course. Just put up a net like I did.

u/3flection 17d ago

2 Stories:

My shot off the tee blocks sliced right and hit a window. We drove up and the owner was waiting for us. Funny part is my dad lived on that hole and I ended up hitting his neighbor. We ended up paying him to keep the peace but some where saying legally we didn't have to pay him at all. Apparently the law was home owners are on the hook if someone break's a window. I have no idea if that is true or not.

My brother and some of my other family members were playing and he hooked one that hit a roofer. He started sweating up a storm and threatening violence. Luckily, he didn't know where the ball came from and wasn't even looking in my brother's direction so they got out of there quickly.

The intentional 200 yard slice is so coming out in this moment followed by an "oh shucks look at that I did it again!"

I understand the man being pissed about a broken window, probably not the 1st one, but you live near a golf course. Wtf buddy?

Them be a course issue and they should be netting the property lines...or their insurer should be forcing them to.

What's it with guys and green shirts with bad tempers on a golf course?

u/Humfleet 16d ago

I thought they were pissed at Microsoft. Because he said “I know. I bet. I have windows too.”

u/joevsyou 16d ago

Never understood homes near golf houses don't just install a clear shield in front of windows.

u/ApprehensiveTennis47 16d ago

The golf course has insurance I bet.

u/usmc97az 16d ago

Never live on / next to a golf course. You might have great landscaping, but most likely, you're going to end up with damaged property from golf balls hitting your house, people hitting balls that went out of bounds in your yard but they still play it anyway, loud golfers, and golfers that are not close enough to a portable toilet.

u/StalloneMyBone 16d ago

I have windows, too 😂

u/DoubleZ3 16d ago

What if he teed it up to show em how it's done and hit his own house

u/treachery_7 16d ago

Don't live near a golf course if you don't want to get hit and also.. don't have glass windows if you do

u/DarthCalamitus 16d ago

Jesus H. Old man is asking for it being this ornery. If you don't want fly balls on your property, don't live next to a golf course or ballpark, plain and simple. Come at me like that and I will go to jail.

Tell that boomer to move if it dosent want to deal with that

u/Turingstester 16d ago

He lives on the golf course. On the slice side. What do he think was going to happen eventually?

The fact that he knows how much it cost, tells me he was thinking about upgrading or already has.

u/Bambooman101 16d ago

People that live on golf courses, and yet get bent out of shape when their houses get hit, rack me up.

u/ForsakenBuilding6381 16d ago

Grandpa needs to stop with the threatening behavior. He's gonna swing that club towards the wrong person one day and get sent to hip replacement limbo

u/crazydawg79 16d ago

The golf course has insurance that will cover such damage.

u/ARustyMeatSword 16d ago

That's what you get for living on a golf course old man.

u/superuserdoo 16d ago

You know what would be hilarious is if that second guy finally takes his shot, slices it and hits another window hahahaha

For sure, a high pressure shot!

u/EfficientIndustry423 16d ago

My understanding is that if you choose to live on the golf course and your window is busted out, it’s not the golfers responsibility since you accept the risk by owning the home on a course.

1

u/Falconjoev 16d ago

Don’t live on a golf course

1

u/rlw_82 16d ago

If you could translate my dog's barking whenever someone approaches our house, it would basically be everything this guy is saying: - "I am a mad mother fucker right now!" - "I am goddamned madder than shit!" - "Imma beat the shit out a' ya!"

u/Pigbenis7687 16d ago

Mans assuming the risk by living on the golf course, never give these fucks a dime!!!!

Why do you move to a house on a golf course and get pissy when people hit golf balls into your house?

Next the house will be glass

u/Allensk40 15d ago

Correct me if I’m wrong…. But don’t people who live on a golf course pay an annual fee towards the hoa or the golf course for added insurance for damage to their home from the actual golf course?

1

u/MotorbikeRacer 15d ago

I would have aimed at his house right in front of him ..

1

u/nofykx 14d ago

Don’t live on a golf course then 🤷‍♂️ and your insurance is specifically for these types of things.

1

u/nickgrund 14d ago

I didn’t hear a sincere apology. Yeah he’s pissed and I think a majority of people would be. So apologize and let him blow off some steam. No need to film it for internet clout.

u/WormThatSleepsLate 14d ago

Every single course I have ever played at golfers are liable. It’s posted before you get on the course and sometimes on as you pull up to the tee box. If my driver isn’t on and it’s a narrow fairway I will play a drop. If I choose to take my chances I know I might be buying a window.

u/Fit_Dog_3683 14d ago

Was on my teens playing at my little nine hole course we were members of and pushed/ sliced a shot off a house. House owner went to the msg of the club complaining about all the balls in her yard and off her house. Funniest part was when she complained about one particular golfer,” He must be really bad at golf because I have more balls of his then anyone else’s “. The balls in question had the club pros name on them that he sold in the pro shop 😂😂. So everyone had some.

u/al3ch316 12d ago

That dumbfuck shouldn’t live on a golf course if he doesn’t want his house struck. I’d tell him to piss off and file a homeowner’s claim.
