Who puts a golf course next to a freeway?, Celi hit in rear Qtr panel. Options

[97lestyousay]

Someone playing yestday sliced one and I managed to run into it at 60.
Better than the winshield.

[Defgeph]

That sucks Randy. I would give them HELL.

[sinner96ST]

wow, what are the chances of that actually happening? that sucks, sorry to hear it.

[LewFX]

there are tons of golf courses near freeways so golfers can see them...ive hit a few over fences but luckily no cars were hit to my knowledge.
golf course rules are if anyone caught intentionally hitting over a fence will be punish by the law. i hope you have insurance

I did that at the range before. If your by the end of the range by the road, they ask you how experienced you are and if you hook or slice. I didn't want to wait for a middle lane to open, so I said, yeah, i'm really good and never slice the ball. Yep, the first one i hit, wam, over the fence and the ball bounces all the way down the road. Didnt hit no cars tho.

Yet

sorry to hear it Randy

[LewFX]

they put a fence behind a par 3 thats only about 170 yards away, pin was about 150, hit a wedge, homerunnnnn, bot did that tick me off.

[97lestyousay]

Its not that bad, it hit close to seam, it would have been a lot
worse had it hit higher.

[presure2]

randy, did you go to the clubhouse and tell them what happen?
most courses like that have insurance for that type of thing

[ILuvMyCelica95]

^ Manny is right.

You should go to the club house, if you haven't done so already.

[CelicaZR]

Doesnt look that bad.
But still you should complain about that.
Maybe you'll get something out of it

[axelrduvirage]

golf=$$



get on them now.



might get a wetsand out of it....oooooh shiny

Try living on a golf course. My driveway is 40 yards behind the green on hole 8. Good thing I park the SUV's closest to the top of the driveway and hide the mr2 behind them.

[97lestyousay]

I already talked to them, they say they are not liable.
The guy who hit the ball is. I'm sure he's ready to admit
fault anytime now. I e-mailed a local news
station this morning, mabe they can get some results.
I can't do anything about my car but maybe I can keep it
from happening to someone else.

Randy i know that course i've played there and yeah good luck trying to find the guy hey i should be down there next weekend well have to meet up again

[easternpiro1]

why do they put the range FACING the freeway?!?!? i dont understand...y not just turn it around?

[blu94gt]

there's a golf course in town here that had a lot of problems with people hitting balls into the main road right by it so they put up like a 65 foot tall net along the whole course lol

[bufferdan]

i bet that scared the poo outta you...WACKKKK!

[bloodrain]

there is a driving range by my house, and at the end of the range (only like 175 yards away) there is a police station, people are ALWAYS launching balls over the fence and hitting cop cars, lol there is a fence up but its not hard to hit it over it.

[97lestyousay]

Sweet, I have an interview tommorow for the news.
They want to do a story on it. The jerk should have
fixed my car. It will cost him a lot more now hopefully.

[CelicaBuddy]

I think I know what your talkin about... I use to live over Kennewick, and I vaguely remember there being a golf course next to the freeway...

But that is stupid that there's a range right there on the freeway...

Down in Ocean Shores, there's a golf course right on the main street through town, on BOTH sides of the street... I went golfing once and nearly hit a car, but luckily it landed and bounced off the ground before it hit the car. I missed it by like... I dunno but it was close...

But I've seen other cars get hit by ball... My cousins smacked one into a car once.. Golfing + Busy Streets = NOT GOOD

Same thing happened to a guy I know but the road runs thru the golf course and it is the hitters fault if they hit a car cuz they should be looking and playing safely! I used to play golf at the course and we always had a checker at the road telling us if someone was coming. So you cant do anything now.

[hurley97]

worse had it hit higher.

thats such a freak occurance...but your very lucky it wasnt the windshield

your also very lucky if thats all thats wrong with your car!
i got tons of **** like that and theyre (probably) not from golf balls [most of them were there when i got the car]
my bumper is ****ed because of people who cant parallel park and my doors have little dents all over cause of bitches who cant see other cars when they open doors

theres a big driving range over on this side of the US and it faces the hudson river
so it may hit some kayakers but at least wont hit a car

[97lestyousay]

I have a couple door dings as well. I always park it in with my
truck and a curb at my apts. Soon garage with alarm system.
Must protect Celica!
