[WSBARP] Golf course liability

[Kary Krismer]

Seems sort of like moving next to a gun range or airport and then 
complaining about the noise.

I live on a golf course and my house was designed so that there was only 
one small window facing the tee side of the course. Perhaps the 
townhouse HOA has a claim against the architect for poor design.  ;-)

Alternatively, the individual golfer may be subject to a negligence 
claim.  That doesn't seem so far fetched, but the problem would be 
identifying them.

Installing a net would probably be the best solution. I know one condo 
built next to a driving range where someone (either the HOA or the 
range) installed a net.  Trees can also help slow/divert the path.
