For comedy, I'm still in the Caddyshack camp. For action, I don't know whether to count Formula 51 (golfing is peripheral to the plot, although he carries his clubs the whole movie, and uses most everything in the bag at one point or another).

The one and only golf movie in the world. Caddyshack! I would give anything to play Bushwood personally, not even sure where it is though. could it be

Bushwood is a fictional place. It's presumably set in Nebraska because Chevy Chase when talking to Danny early on refers to going to college in Nebraska, or something, while Danny is caddying.

Bushwood is a fictional name, itself, though. "Bush" and "Wood" - use your imagination.

Happy Gilmore. Caddyshack is a good movie, great if you buy into mass response by most golfers (presumably an audience who were in their formative years when Caddyshack was released).

For me HG came along when I was in MY formative golf years, so it is funnier to me. I wonder whether Favorite Golf Movie responses will line up with the age of the responder? Either way, I am a guy who even enjoyed The Legend of Bagger Vance. Tin Cup: solid too.

I haven't seen Day in the Sun or Dead Solid Perfect, but I really want to. Does anybody know if they're available on DVD? I'm guessing Dead Solid Perfect must be, but Day in the Sun is pretty old and I wouldn't be a bit surprised if it has never been re-released.

If no one already said it, the name you are looking for is Lou Gossett Jr.

    • Day 549, May 4, 2024 After lessons and working with Natalie, hit some balls for awhile. Just backswing stuff. Forgot about the slightly shorter stuff, though I'm sure it was as they were only about 75% speed with brief pauses.

    • Best drive I've ever hit: I will not be answering any questions about the rest of the hole. Or the round, for that matter.
    • I tried hybrids way back when TaylorMade introduced the copper orange Firesole Rescue, the clubhead having been made of titanium which was still relatively new even in drivers back then. I couldn't hit it well at all, and while the success of hybrids suggests that the modern ones must be quite good,  I'm perfectly happy with the 5, 7, and 9-woods.  Early ones of mine were Top Flite Intimidator 400s made by Spalding... and also made of titanium, now that I think of it.  I still have them in my basement. I do bag a driving iron, but it's a one-trick-pony that never sees fairway use.    
    • The last time I played Maxfli balls, Dunlop was still making them. How long ago was that? Mostly, though, I used to play Top Flites (original 336 dimple model) when Spalding was still making them. Now I play the Pro V1x. Last time that I ordered some, Titleist was still making them. Let's see how long that lasts.
