When You Should Yell Fore on the Golf Course
"Fore" — actually, fore! — is a word of warning yelled out by a golfer who hits an errant shot. If your shot is in danger of hitting or landing very close to another golfer or group of players on the golf course you should yell "fore!" to warn players to watch out. Yelling "fore!" is considered good golf etiquette, but it's not just a courtesy to other golfers, it can serve to prevent injury. After all, a golf ball striking a person can do serious damage.

It's pretty simple: If you hit a shot and see that your golf ball is heading in the direction of other golfers —- and there's a chance, even just a slim one, that your ball will land among or close to those golfers — yell out "fore!" Yell it loud and yell it proud. Yelling it doesn't do anybody any good if you don't scream it loud enough to be heard, after all. Perhaps the most common usage of fore is when golfers hit the ball farther than they expected, or when they play a stroke without realizing that there is a golfer up ahead who might be in danger.
