Bagger Vance is pretty good as long as you avert your eyes whenever they show a shot of Matt Damon swinging a golf club. That swing is just bad.

Is it Charles Barkley bad?

nothing in the history of the game is Charles Barkley bad.

"...you will receive total consciousness."



So I've got that going for me...
which is nice.

i'm amazed every time he goes in to his wind up that he can get the club on the ball.

I don't know how such a good athlete can even do that thing he does and think he's making a swing.

He's been to some of the great teachers out there and still does that.

The Legend of Bagger Vance would be my pick.

Caddyshack is good, great actually. But for these clamoring over Bagger Vance, watch Dead Solid Perfect, A Stroke of Genius (Bobby Jones) or Follow the Sun. Follow the Sun is just like most bio movies of the '50s (aka, comes with a whole lot of cheese), but it's a great watch.

 

[GAVol]

watch Dead Solid Perfect,

A very underrated flick IMO. Randy Quaid was really good in that.

don't know the name of the flick, but there's a Disney style job out there about Francis Ouimet's first US Open victory. Very good flick. The French douchebag from Transformers plays Ouimet.

Is it "The Greatest Game Ever Played"?

I was happy to see that "Dead Solid Perfect" was mentioned. I loved that movie when it came on HBO. Bad Hair is still one of my heros.
