Gotta go with "A Christmas Story". As many times as I've seen Flick get his tongue stuck to that flagpole it's still hilarious.

"The Muppets Christmas Carol" always gets my rapt attention when it's on also.

Hybrid: Wishon "321", 24*, MSF 85 HB, Winn DSI

Bag: Some big, honkin', ridiculous overkill of an Ogio cart bag with more pockets than I have teeth.

That is THE BEST Christmas movie of all time!! If you want something lovey dovey, then "Its a Wonderful Life" it is!!

Christmas Vacation is my hands down favorite. I also like Scrooged with Bill Murray . That is probably my favorite of the Christmas Carol remakes.

Having kids, we end up watching their stuff as well. Elf and The Polar Express are two of the more tolerable movies.

I will judge my rounds much more by the quality of my best shots than the acceptability of my worse ones.

I guess I'm kinda old fashioned in my Christmas movie tastes, but I watch them every year.

1) White Christmas
2) It's a Wonderful Life
3) National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation
4) Scrooged (with Bill Murray)

and I'll usually throw another one in over the holidays... for some reason this year I want to watch Home Alone.

Cheers, Allan

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By WillieT ·

      26 Nov 24 -  It was not a record breaking round by any means, but rather a simple walking of the back nine today playing TBWB (two ball-worse ball) where the challenge is to play the worse of the two shots played - could be an errant drive from the woods, a tree knocked ball that is 100 yds farther back down the fairway, a nGIR ball as opposed to a GIR….the goal today was to stay no worse than bogie thru nine.  Managed to achieve that goal - bogied 7 holes with one dbl and one par to counter the dbl.  It’s about staying focused and not letting a bad shot or lie derail, but rather be an opportunity.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT ·

      Day 208 (26 Nov 24)- Opted to walk 9 today (was the back nine as they had a huge group going off the front) but instead of it being persimmons and blades, I had the regular gamers but made it a TBWB (two ball-worst ball) round.  This really challenges on several fronts - ball striking to be as consistent as possible, course management from non-optimal lies and keeping your head in it as it can be depressing to nail a shot on line-on target and the second rattles the trees right and it’s over 50 yards back and that’s the one you have to play.  The goal was to be no worse than bogie overall (+9).  Finished the round exactly on the number with some solid recoveries, no penalty strokes and only one 3-putt.
