I feel for ya man, I work at a golf course too, and got tagged in the rib a few weeks ago. Thankfully it was only brusied, but it still hurt to breathe. Was the person sorry at all? When I got tagged the person said, "you shouldnt have been there" and my response was, "I've been watering the green for the past 10 min(par 3), you saw me and didnt give a shit" needless to say I got their membership suspended for 2 months and a letter of apolgy.
Worst pain though, compound fracture above the wrist. nothing like seeing your own bones.
