QUESTION
Am I liable for damages done to a home on a golf course while playing golf? Ex: a broken window
Asked on Oct 28th, 2014 on Civil Litigation - Colorado
More details to this question:
I am the golfer and I was teeing off when the ball went left and struck a window. I was not intentional and the homeowner wants me to pay for the window. Does living on a golf course imply "Assumed Risk" towards the homeowner? I live in Colorado and the incident ocured in the city of Arvada. Thanks.

If you hit the ball and it hit the home you are liable and should pay for the broken window. The homeowner does not live "on" the golf course he lives "near" the golf course and did not assume the risk of damages based on negligent, or otherwise produced property damages.
