GOLF BALL DENT!!!

COLLINGTREE PARK.GOLF CLUB.

Dear Miss Steggles,

I am sorry to hear about the incident involving your car when it was parked at 41 Colonial Drive.

Because it happened on August 31st 2007, I am unable to discover which golfer actually hit the ball. As the golf club carries no insurance for this kind of accident it is the individual responsibility of golfers. I am unable to help.

Should you have the damage repaired and provide me with a copy of your invoice I may be able to make a small contribution.

Yours Sincerely

Les Pullan
Club Secretary

aha the standard "we've heard it all before now [!Expletive Deleted!] off" letter

Fireyred:
I know what a crock of ****.
Stupid, they must have a record of who was playing that day, although not like they would have been able to tell the exact person who hit the golf ball that way even if I'd have done the letter the same day it happened.:roll:

Any advice?

Should I reply or is it a loss cause and best to just bite my lip and repair it myself :?:

I would have thought that the Golf club had a legal obligation to take reasonable measures to prevent golfballs from leaving their grounds. And must have public liability insurance. So the excuse you received sounds like a crock of poo to me.

Tell them that you are going to write to the local council to see if they are liable as this is a matter for the health & saftey department, they would have to have measure's  in place to stop this happening otherwise they would not get planning permission, they are just trying it on, let them know you mean business & if they do not pay for the repairs you will have no other alternative but to take legal action.
