augolf1716 21,157 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 I was a member of Rolling Hills CC Davie, Fl which is where Caddy was filmed the damn parties the crew had like to have killed me. In the video where the old women were teeing off is the first hole tee next to club house I hit the longest drive in my life on that hole ball went over 345 yards and I was not a long hitter..............I hit a sprinker head..............and then boom it took off.............like a rocket. God the times I had at that club I'm lucky I did not end up in jail or dead We did not have caddies but we had a hell of a bar and lots and lots of gators Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know its weird at the time I never thought about it just seem to happen/work out and I've been very very bless in life.

Amen.....love your stories❤..........Caddyshack come out around the time my dad started taking me to the Clubhouse.......some places were off limits......but was always guaranteed to get club sandwich and fries..........which as I got older turned into spicy bloody marys between front and back nine.👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad_ATX 13,654 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 This may be the most important question I'll ever ask you @augolf1716. Did they actually sell this hat in the clubhouse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AURaptor 1,125 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Never noticed it before, until when I watched a documentary on the making of the movie, during the pool scenes, just how green the water looks , and how it changes from different scenes. The bather load + the heat, the movie folks didn't take into account of how much chlorine was needed to keep a pool blue and clear. ( I also would bet they didn't keep the filters clean either... ) Now when I do watch, I can't help but notice it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUloggerhead 2,231 Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 A 345+ drive? Sounds awfully like The Dali Lhama Himself -- "big hitter, the Lhama." One of the few movies I've been to where the audience was roaring from beginning to end. One of the most quoted movies in history, too. I once got to play in a foursome that included a judge. I was patient ... but I finally got to say the line: "Your honor, your Honor." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
