That's a fact !
What I usually do is pick the ball up and place it on a TEE at the same spot. That tells the player that something happened, and that we noticed.
It is rarely the intent of the player to hit into a group in front. More often it is lack of confidence in own abilities (I can't hit that far) or not knowing that somebody was up ahead.
I most often get an apology at the first occasion using this technique.
I don't believe in confrontation, and I don't believe in destroying another players round as some form of 'revenge'.
Should it happen again on the same round, however, I might step on the ball instead of using a tee.
