CONTEST-Best Golf Scene In A Non-Golf Movie

[GolfSpy Dave]

This was the thought that I woke up to today. The Masters is starting and golf is on my mind I guess. As the title states, this contest is all about finding the best golf scene in a movie not about golf.

 

I then decided that I would make it a contest as I think that I have the top two scenes already. If you can convince me, and the MGS readers, that your scene is "better" then you win the prize.

 

What is the prize? Not sure yet. I'll go to the garage and make up a GolfSpy Dave Grab Bag/Box. There's lots of cool stuff hoarded away in there, trust me.

 

To win, all you need to do is post your scene in this thread. If can't get the scene to embed, a link is fine. Remember, your scene must come from a non-golf movie, and it must be better than the two I have posted.

 

Here are what I consider the best golf scenes in a non-golf movie:

 

Animal House (NSF Language)

I gotta work on my game

Don't think of it as work. The whole point is just to enjoy yourself.

 

Goldfinger

If that's his original ball, I'm Arnold Palmer.

It isn't.

How do you know?

I'm standing on it.

 

Can you top those, or does the grab bag stay with me?

[jdiddyesquire]

I don't think it gets better than this. Larry Bird? Jordan? Billy Murray? NEWMAN?!
 

 

Little longer version:

 

 

Look at Murray hold that finish!!

[RookieBlue7]

I'm going with either Casino when the Feds run out of gas watching Nicky play golf and land on the course then he offers up $100 for the first one to hit the plane... Takes hitting the range picker to a whole new level

 

 

 

Or Swingers when Rob and Mike start counting strokes after a par 3 and practically need an abacus then they're like "alright, we're dead even after 1 hole... Better replace the flag"... We've all been at the army golf stage

 

 

(Tried to get them to embed... Couldn't figure it out)

[Bogey in The Woods]

Swingers
I'm Goofy
The Aviator
The old colors and older golf swings make me laugh. 
Falling Down
I've been Michael Douglas WHILE playing....
For my fellow Vets: Navy Seals
Although I have never seen any Seals I know dress like this on the course. 

[hckymeyer]

I was also going to pick the clip from Falling down, but since already chosen I'll go with these two.

 

Sideways

 

 

And I Love You, Man

[Bogey in The Woods]

Totally forgot to try the Classy Approach. Love Pierce Brosnan, but sometimes you gotta go old school 

 

The Thomas Crown Affair. 

 

 

I mean it is Steve McQueen

[JBones]

50 First Dates

 

 

 

 

Hall Pass

 

[fozcycle]

I gotta go with the original Thomas Crown Affair & then Sideways.

 

Those are terrific.....sorry no entries from me as i don't have time to reflect...LOL

[Bogey in The Woods]

So I told my wife about the contest and this was her entry:

 

The Italian Job

 

"I KNOW you're gonna get that. (THUNK) That was GREAT baby"

 

[apprenti23]

I second the nomination of Hall Pass- had a buddy who was a stand-in for that movie. He also gave the actors some lessons in preparation. He's actually rolling putts in the background- look left side- green polo, khakis, dark hair. Rob Stocke, Director of Instruction, Golf Club of Georgia.

[SPY ZINGER]

Hands down, FBI Plane landing on The Las Vegas CC (Actually LV National) in the movie, Casino. (SPY ZINGERs personal favorite)

 

[Bogey in The Woods]

ok. last one.

 

The Sweetest Thing

 

[jdiddyesquire]

Couple more classics...

 

Get Smart takes a sedan through a driving range. The last line is amazing.

Johnny Noxxville being as ******* in Jackass.

 

 

Some excellent golf instruction here by Chief O'Brien, followed by lots of swearing.

Starsky and Hutch is pretty good but the "I Love You, Man" golf scene is Gold!!  And I don't know if this qualifies as a golf scene but I like the way Billy thinks.

[Undershooter]

Bogey you stole the one I wanted to post lol I have been meaning to post that and this scene for 2 days but keep forgetting. Btw I confess I couldn't make it through this hole movie. Couldn't keep my attention at the time. The golf scene is nice though. Lost in Translation

 

I also thought about the driving range from there's something about mary but can't find It.

[GolfSpy Barbajo]

Not sure if this counts as a golf movie, but Martin and Lewis ROCK it....

 

 

 

 

 

[ZenGolfer]

Mine has to be the golf scene in, "Lost In Translation".

A bit late friend

[Bogey in The Woods]

1. Samuel L Jackson

 

2. A Kilt

 

3.Golf Clubs

Make sure to remove the head cover before you go upside someones head with your three wood.

[RookieBlue7]

Not a non golf movie, but has anyone else here saw the movie GolfBalls!   ? Hilarious

This it?

[DaveP043]

There were two good bits in M*A*S*H.  Hawkeye and Trapper John go to Tokyo to operate on a general's son, and squeeze in a golf game.  I remember them driving into the golf course and Bobby Troup, as the driver, is muttering "g__d___ Army"  Another scene, hitting balls off the helicopter pad, Donald Sutherland saying "I wish they wouldn't land these things here when we're playing golf".

[Jcombs1026]

How about some Jim Carrey in The Mask? More unique than most as its a golf scene based on intimidation instead of humor. Only fair that with 2 movies you get 1 humorous and 1 on the other end of the spectrum. 

 

[Jcombs1026]

Had to dig deep for this one, and not even sure why I remembered it but the combo of the late, great Robin Williams and John Travolta here

[Jcombs1026]

Here's one for the kids, Despicable Me

 

[Jcombs1026]

I have way too much time on my hands, but with my 4th suggestion...I would recommend "urban golf" scene from the League on FX. Unfortunately, I cannot find a clip, but if you've seen it you know what I'm talking about

[Jcombs1026]

Navy Seals with Charlie Sheen, 

[The Dansome]

Goldfinger! By far my fav of all time, always wanted to play that course as a kid.
