Played golf on wednesday, and was standing on our 9th tee waiting for our 4th to tee off. Without any warning - next minute I am on the ground having been hit directly on the top of the head from an adjacent hole.
Apparently the player did not see where his ball went. My Poser> Should you shout FORE under these circumstances ?
My view - is certainly that you should, rather than be potentially negligent. I also am thinking of wearing a cycle helmet at future games.
Knee Jerk? Possible, but kids now bomb the ball 300 yards and shouts of fore are unlikely to carry that far. In my case, it was an elderly guy from 150 yards, but I remain more than a little shocked by the incident and a lot less safe when I next go out to play.
