Yeah, I think we grew up in the same neighborhood. I believe the dogs owner was a blind old negro…..
I Hate my Neighbors

Wait for neighbor to get stuck behind someone at the gas pump again and bang his mom
Hit the ball at the house and tee off like you’re hitting doubles off the monster
Isn’t there a gate they could use to get the ball back themselves ?
Damn, life is short.
We are empty nesters and we set up a trampoline every summer for the neighbor kids to play on.

Make up some fake posters with your photo and “registered neighborhood sex offender-beware if you have children” and then staple them over the hood. I guarantee that you will never see a ball in your yard again and they move in three months.
I have always held a binary view of this issue.
Either you: 1) let the neighbor kids occasionally trespass onto your lawn/driveway, in which case they learn to like and appreciate you; or 2) voraciously defend your property boundaries against the pesky neighbor kids (and their sportsballs), in which case the neighbor kids and their friends grow to despise you and eventually egg your house.
Choice is yours.

Why do you care? Kids running into my yard getting balls that fly over the fence would not bother me at all. One of my neighbors has a large garden, so I have my own kids play whiffle ball the other way. Occasionally, the ball flys over the fence. Never been an issue in my neighborhood.
Passive aggressive is the way to go.
I'll just leave this for you.

Why do I care? Because it’s my yard dude. I don’t want these little shitheads running on my portion of earth. I paid for this. It’s mine.
My lawnmower sees the ball even if I don’t. Also, then I certainly won’t be tossing it back over.
You should toss the chopped up balls back over. It will serve as a warning like “you could be next.”
I feel bad for our neighbor when our son was growing up and we would hit and throw a lot in our backyard. We tried setting up nets and such but we probably put dozens of balls onto his side of the fence over the course of a decade. I did not expect any of them back, but was grateful when they did toss them.
Remember when Clint Eastwood talked to an empty chair as if it was Obama. I wish that never happened. Dude was killing it was movies around then but did that.
I'm going to tell my kids he thought Obama was really in the chair
this wouldn't bother me at all. I would be happy to see a kid out playing. I would go play goalie.
Buy a german shepherd and just tell them that you'll throw it back once a day, no more. And that time will be when you first go out there in the morning, so if the ball lands in your yard in the afternoon, they'll just have to wait.
The downside is less for you (only throw it back once a day) and makes you appear a little less curmudgeonly.

Neighbors are a pain. Slobs w/o pride who let their property get overrun with weeds, a son keeps bringing in shitty equipment and old vehicles. Complaints to the city have created an understandable unspoken war.
Across the street lives a guy we have loaned money to for years occasionally who has burned everyone else in town, has now actually become belligerent when we asked if he was working at his last request. Unreal.
After, BTW I let him use my mower for years to mow his lawn. No offer to reimburse.
So, just try to be kind and neighborly and expect nothing in return. Oh, and I mowed half of the top neighbor's one acre property for a year, uncompensated while he was ill with cancer.
I just hate my neighbors, dude. Little pieces of shit.
How great would it be if land didn’t cost an arm and a leg and a person could live on an acreage without neighbors.
What a pipe dream.
