How about it? What is your favorite golf movie that isn't Caddyshack?

I'd have to go Tin Cup myself

Happy Gilmore... growing up this movie was on during every roadtrip in my car..

Greatest Game Ever Played is a great one aswell, I wouldn't mind watching that again.
Giants - Cardinals - Rangers

NFL - MLB - NHL

That's a tough choice for me.

Happy Gilmore is probably the one I could watch over and over the most.

Tin Cup was good, but I've seen it enough I think.

I also liked The Legend of Bagger Vance, but that's because I'm a sucker for Charlize Theron.

I haven't seen the Greatest Game Ever Played, I guess I'll have to check it out.

It's entertaining, but it has a distinct "Disney" feel.

Tin Cup is great, despite Rene Russo's repeated attempts to ruin it.

This is why Dead Solid Perfect is so good, fantastic gratuitous nudity and no Russo or Costner and virtually the same story.

For laughs I go Happy Gilmore...nothing beats that big guy chasing down Shooter Mcgavin Lol. Serious golf move....I'm partial to Bagger Vance.

Mine is definitely Tin Cup. Most likely because I have plenty of Tin Cup moments myself.

    • I think part of it is there hasn't been enough conclusive studies specific to golf regarding block studies. Maybe the full swing, you can't study it because it is too complicated and to some degree it will fall into variable or random.  
    • Going one step stiffer in the golf shaft, of the same make and model will have minor impact on the launch conditions. It can matter, it is a way to dial in some launch conditions if you are a few hundred RPM off or the angle isn't there. Same with moving weights around. A clubhead weights 200-220 grams. You are shifting a fraction of that to move the CG slightly. It can matter, again its more about fine tuning. As for grip size, this is more personal preference. Grip size doesn't have any impact on the swing out of personal preference.  You are going to spend hundreds of dollars for fine tuning. Which if you want, go for it. I am not sure what your level of play is, or what your goals in golf are.  In the end, the golf swing matters more than the equipment. If you want to go to that level of detail, go find a good golf club fitter. ChatGPT is going to surface scan reddit, golfwrx, and other popular websites for the answers. Basically, it is all opinionated gibberish at this point.

    • Well the first advice I would give is to look at your swing. If you are swing out to in, it may be difficult to fix your misses with club adjustments. They would only be a bandaid. I use midsize grips because I have long fingers and I feel I have more control with them. I also have tinkered with shaft length and swing weight. But I know when I miss it’s because my swing was off.
