      And listen to the builder when they tell you NOT to select the cheapest windows and screens for windows facing the course.

    Is this someone who doesn’t understand what happens on a golf course?

      This is the exact kind of person who buys a house near an airport because it was cheap, then complains endlessly to restrict airport operations because of the noise.

        Wow. This changed my point of view quick. Could you imagine building your dream house and then some rich idiot developer (like Trump) puts a golf course next door. That would suck.

    The kind sign we put up when we fail to consider possible consequences of our decisions and blame others for our failure.

      Old people who don’t go to parks because there are children and brown people there like to see grass and trees too.

      Money, it was huge in the nineties to build golf courses lined with houses.

      Some people who bought houses loved golf, they usually got many perks at the course. Some thought it’d be cool and didn’t think of the double-sides.

    I used to do utility locates around a couple of golf courses that were surrounded by homes. The homes and the golf course were made at more or less the same time. For the most part they were set up so that balls were not flying toward houses.

    I once had to mark some lines that were ON the golf course, and a couple of idiots were saying they would hit a ball at me since I was marking the grass. I told them the first time a ball flies near me I’m coming back with a dirt bike.
