Entry Near the end of the film, after Happy is hit with the car, he plays badly for a while, but then gets his game back after going to his happy place. During the part after that where it shows Happy getting all the balls in the holes, what's the song that's playing called?
Entry Why has the Subway logo been removed from Happy's T-shirt during parts of the concluding match? Note, I noticed this on the television version. [Probably had to do with some sort of legal issue between the Subway Corporation and the television station the movie was airing on.]
Entry After Happy sinks the final putt to win the tournament, Shooter grabs his jacket and runs. Mr. Larson catches up to him and off camera yells, "Face down." However, in the TV version, he instead yells, "Stay still." Why is this line changed? [It is an inuendo that Mr. Larson "violated" Shooter for stealing the jacket, which is changed for the TV versions to be cleaner. However, some people insist it's the same for both versions, so it's possible that later DVD releases were changed too.]
Entry Who was the guy that was always around shaking his head every time Happy did something stupid? He mentioned something about Grizzly Adams, having a beard? [He's the legendary golfer Lee Trevino.]
Entry How where the flying ball shots in the beginning done? I know it could be a helicopter, but some of the shots go through branches etc. Not too easy with a helicopter. [Computer animation.]
Entry In the movie, when you see Happy's dream (happy place) for the second time, you see Shooter "eat" Grandma's tongue, however, in the TV version, that part is cut out, why? There's nothing bad about that part. [Maybe not to you but to a lot of people a scene in which Shooter graphically makes out with a elderly woman is a little disturbing, not something to be broadcast for children to see.]
