This parody of golf instructional tapes is a classic. Leslie Nielsen is back, this time with funny man Archie Hahn (famous for being attacked in "Gremlins 2: The New Batch".) Nielsen's idea to "play bad golf but feel good" is perfect. All the antics shown in this film are dead-on, hidden truths that we as golfers can surely laugh at. Some of these crazy things may even work on a golf course!
Also, the "Behind-the-scenes/Making of" at the end of the tape was ahead of its time. Now a common thing on DVDs, this VHS version had "extras" on it. These extras are great and show some great stuff.
The only two downsides are:
1. No laugh track. When the jokes are made, silence follows.
2. Archie Hahn is great but clearly over-acts in a few situations and comes off as a little annoying.
Whether you just hit the driving range or play the course, any golfer can find humor in this! Snappy production with slapstick humor makes this great.

I first rented this at Blockbuster a couple of years ago. It is VERY funny if you know anything about golf. Otherwise it is just a riot! I am buying it because Blockbuster no longer rents it, and it is just too good not to have around for friends and visiting relatives!

Well i can, this movie is hilarious, although the newer dvd is a lot more funny. This movie had me laughing so hard i was crying. well, maybe not crying, but it was still petty funny. Also teaches you the basics about golf, remember, Keep your head down!
