it's a warning to others that the ball will be airborne so they can get out of the way if it looks like it's coming toward them.

Because yelling "THREE" seemed kinda stupid....OK, just trying to be funny....the first dude has the most logical answer. Also I don't believe you yell FORE before every shot....just if it looks like the ball is heading towards someone that may not be expecting it.

You don't yell fore before every shot, just shots that look like it's going to hit someone.

Fore means when you hit a ball and some one is in front of you like fifty or seventy yards in front and you might hit them you yell "FORE!!!!!"

"I played golf....I did not get a hole in one, but I did hit a guy and that's way more satisfying. Your supposed to yell FORE, but I was too busy mumbling there ain't no way that's gonna hit him."

It means "ahead", and it's believed to come from the military "beware before", which was shouted when shooting battery behind the troops.
