Assuming this video is accurate, as far as hand/eye coordination, I wonder just how good of a golfer Bruce Lee was. I know he played the game of golf, but not sure just how well he played.

Sorry, folks.  Having played ping pong a lot, what is shown on video is not possible.  It is a video forgery if I ever saw one.

Bruce Lee was certainly a talented man, but this video appears to be movie magic. Remember, he was involved in the film industry pretty much his entire adult life.

You can see some of the volleys change speed and trajectory as they cross towards Lee's side in many instances.

Surprised no one has asked the age old question of who wins in real life combat between Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris. 

That is a really cool video even if it is a fake.

Chuck Norris always respected Bruce Lee's extreme speed and power. Because they were close friends ,I'm sure they sparred together so Chuck would know. . .

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT · Posted

      Day 1 (9 Mar 26) - starting up again with a week layoff due to travels.  Played with the men’s group for the Monday shootout.  Was good to play, had some rust especially the long game, especially getting proper weight shift.

      Day 204 3-9 Wrist arch through downswing and getting wider with backswing. Need to continue working on getting trail arm "reconnected" as it still seems a bit off with wider backswing.

      Saw these today, this is a scam.  Joined in 2026.  Click his name and then his profile.  2 posts, no friends, one item for sale.  These clubs are probably takes from Temu. Facebook

      My Swing (Ty_Webb)

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Range again today. A few freezers and a few smoothies. If I add a little speed I swing further arms go deeper and lower and more across again. Really like where this freezer got to on backswing:   This is a smoothie (ish). Clubhead tracks up the hands nicely but the things go a bit wrong: At normal speed: Lastly one shortish pitch shot. Pitching some days I come out and can drop it on the flag. Other days it’s going sideways. Like missing right or left by 10 yards from 50 yards and nothing in between. I suspect it’s from the hands coming out and the cut across. If I release it on that line it’s going left. If I hold it off it’s going right and then it’s timing. When it’s off it’s off. Feels like if I can get that under control it will tighten up a lot.

      Have You Played Where a PGA, Champions, or LPGA Event Has Been Played?

      By Elmer · Posted

      Disney's Lake Buena Vista Golf Course. Which I believe used to host a LPGA tournament. Fantastic course, compared to what I typically play. So fantastic I carded a 115! in my defense it was 90 degrees by 9 am in late July. Not to mention whatever grass they had around the green was absolutely foreign to me, I could not get my wedge through it. The entire grass came up like it was a piece of shag carpet. Suffice to say my short game was a mess. but good times!
