SPY VIP GolfSpy Dave Posted April 9, 2015 SPY VIP Share Posted April 9, 2015 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?

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...

apprenti23 Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 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.

DaveP043 Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 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".
