I think it is time for a new comedy golf movie. I think a movie based on someone like David Feherty, a great mix of funny and sad would work. Maybe a movie based on junior golfers especially junior tournament golf, pushy parents, wacko instructors etc., might work also. I would stay away from anything to much like Caddy Shack, to hard to top. There has to be opprotunities for off course Hi-Jinks also. Maybe a teaching pro at a las vegas resort who hustles on the side? I can see it now girls, gambling, golf, idiot tourists and students. Pierce Brosnan and Jack Wagner as seedy aging pros on the hustle on and off the course.

Anyone have any other ideas?

Costner and Wagner team up with the greenskeeper (Jack Black?) to try and rob a casino to get money to pay for a lovable child character's life saving operation, fail miserably and wind up winning the money anyway in a million dollar Vegas alternate shot tournament. Could be good.

      Day 52: simulator day. Played Old Head and shot an “80,” which was probably more like a 78 in a non-simulator. Then worked on irons for 15 minutes, and may have found a good feel.

      Vokey or Bettinardi Wedges

      I don't know what to tell you. You can't test wedges with range balls, and you have a LOT more info to gather before you can begin to really even test anything else, either.

      Day 27 - 2026-01-16 Played 18 with some of the usual "too many voices" going on when I'm working on swing stuff. Fun to get out in great bay area winter weather.

      New, College Golfer Trying to Go Pro

      By DaveP043 · Posted

      I know one recent college grad who's trying the same thing.  This guy was a Division III All-American, went on to play one year at Division I LSU, and is not working hard.  He won the Gulf States Open, a pro event, and made it to the second stage of the Korn Ferry Tour School late in the fall.  And didn't make the cut to get to the final stage.  I won't talk about swing or play stuff, but I believe there are a couple of things that are essential.  Obviously, talent, and drive, or work ethic.   I can't tell you how to do it, but you HAVE to get through it.  Golf is going to be your life, and it takes lots of work. Two more things that are really critical.  You'll need the facility to be able to practice.  My young friend stayed in Baton Rouge, as a past player on the team he can still use the LSU practice facilities.  And money.  Its unlikely you'll be able to work a full-time job and practice the way you will need to.  You'll probably need backing, from a parent, from a consortium of friends or club members., something to support you. Good luck, its not an easy path, but anything is possible.  Another young man from our area, Mike Brennan, just won for the first time on the "big" PGA Tour.
