Anyone else almost have issues with this with the unfortunate chaps who are homeless and don't realise the shiny things in the parks are targets and sleep in the "line of fire" and almost play through someones living room?
One hole in Livermore, CA, maybe it's the last, has a big bush/thicket as the main fairway obstacle. For at least several days, while I was in town, there was a camp inside of it. I never saw the resident, but at least a sleeping bag, I think a pillow, maybe a few other items.
Playing with my kids, etc. I was always a bit nervous around it. Not wanting to startle anybody, or overly intrude. But, there must be plenty of discs that land in the thicket (dead center of the fairway), and I did want my discs back.
It was thick enough, and the camp located in such a way, that I didn't feel there was a big chance of injuring anyone. But, you certainly wouldn't want that.
I've heard the course in town in Santa Cruz has a had lot, maybe on and off over the years. Berkeley?
I'm scruffy enough sometimes when I play that I could maybe be mistaken for a homeless guy in newish boots. And I'm a college prof!
