The solution to the lack of official signs is to petition your local government to add the signs or pavement markings or some other visible warning of the hazard. This will have much more real-world impact than adding a tag to OpenStreetMap. And it will make it possible to verifiably add the tag

There's a few usages of hazard=golf_balls, which is more like what you're describing and actually a hazard. It seems a bit nebulous, but perhaps the sign could be mapped. That's different from a golf crossing, which is a place where golfers and golf carts would cross a road. I've already added
