There’s a lot of criticism thrown at this movie, but in the end it’s a beautiful story of a man broken by war who is rehabilitated and healed. Excellent performances by Will Smith and Matt Damon.

I see the field every time I play. The field. The sand the water the bushes the weeds and the trees to. I see it all. And then I see the beer cart.

Love this movie. Very underated.

Will Smith gives an underrated monologue in this scene. One of the best.

In August of 1969 I was in Basic combat training at Ft. Biss in Texas. We were having "Record" fire at the rifle range. There was over a 1000 men shooting that day. We were shooting for our rifleman medals that day. When I went on line to shoot my 100 rounds of 7.62 x 51 using an M14 rifle. I felt just like this. I was in the groove and I was one with my weapon and the range. Everything dropped away. There was just the sun, the sand and the targets popping up down range. I began firing. It was amazing. The targets came up, my rifle fired. Again & again for 100 shots. Everything else just faded out. I was one with the rifle. The soldier doing my scoring was extremely excited. I was aware of him, but paid no attention to his words. I was too busy shooting. When I was done, I had only missed one shot. I scored Expert. But that was not all. It turned out that I had the best score in the entire battalion. It was a magical afternoon for me. I was just 17 years old. I'd never felt so good in my life. I still remember that day.

Maybe the most beautiful 6 minutes of golf ever filmed. Still gives me chills. Love the actor who plays Jones. Everytime I've seen him in anything else, I think of this scene. He IS Bobby Jones. I'm sure his buddies and family tell him the same thing.

I have never been a sports fan, but I absolutely love most sports movies. This one is a GREAT example of one that I love. The cinematography and camera work is truly wonderful, and it's a great story.

BOBBY was a work of ART 👍

One of my most favorite movie moments. it is the truth for anything a person does. whatever sport, whatever creative effort, whatever challenge.

this movie is about far more than golf, its about life.. golf is the tool used to get the message over... the finding of inner peace and harmony in the most unlikely of places... at times when you need it most.. what a beautiful film, ive seen non better...

The best round I ever played was when I only concentrated on how the swing felt and tried to swing the club in a full proper circle to a musical rhythm. I truly had no idea of what my score was during the round and told my playing partners not to tell me what it was. Every shot I played I just thought of the circle. Occasionally I can repeat some of that but usually struggle. The feeling comes and goes and it takes a lot of faith to just swing the club especially when the score is good. Just a great film

“Look like 180 yards to you?” “No…it’s 181.” What a great life lesson from these two sentences.

This scene encapsulates the feeling of golf perfectly. The focus on hitting that ball melds with the beauty of the landscape, the smell of the mist, the feeling of a slight breeze, the sun peering through a tree. All comes into one. It's kind of like a feel, don't think vibe, but it still related well to the game game.

this is one of the most beautiful scenes choreographed in a sports movie ever.

Underrated film. Underrated soundtrack.

This movie is amazing. Great performances from the entire cast.

Legend of Slapper Vance

So much wisdom in one speech. "Get ourselves outta its way" "Your hands are wiser than your head ever gonna be" "See that focus..." "Aint some dragon you gotta slay" Why do the best athletes make it look effortless? Because for them, it is.

Best quote of the movie "Your hands are smarter than your heads ever gonna be" Point is you have to feel your way through Golf, just like life. I have learned so much about myself and about life through the game. It has touched my life and whether I'm playing good or bad I enjoy every stroke because I know it's a gift, not a privledge. Truly is the greatest game there is and will ever be. You only have yourself to blame be it good bad or ugly. Just like life 👍

In my top 5 movies of all time. This movie to me is about overcoming the personal struggle within to find our true self. The flick has heart , passion and loads of soul. Robert Redford is an amazing man.

I'm glad I saw this clip to remind me of what a great movie this was. I haven't seen it in a long time. Definitely on my list of movies to re-watch

My boys wicked smaaht

Love it When Bobby Jones Expression changes as he is approaching the ball...FOCUS!!

Will Smith plays this so beautifully...

"Cuz if you had seen the field, you wouldn't be hacking at that ball like you was choppin' weeds out from under your front porch" LOL!

True love letter to the game.

perfect movie for a hangover day... makes you re-think everything

Probably my all-time favorite ‘sports’ movie. So Good! Emotional too.

From that day on, matt Damon still takes 30 minutes to play every stroke

Bagger Vance's character is a character that Key & Peele would call a "Magical Negro".

One of the greatest sports movies EVER. Great use of music too. That music theme is amazing!

Great book - great movie - full of life drops.

Such a good movie! There’s tons of quasi-spiritual wisdom in this film like this scene!

Funny how everyone but Bagger look so concentrated/anxious/dumbstruck at that last shot. Bagger is completely calm. He knew that ball was in way before it landed.

I’ve seen the field not just once but twice maybe threes, maybe more..god willing who knows. y’all I have felt it and I have seen the field. I’ve seen people in the field and they don’t return. But those moments, those many moments that I’ve expieranced this, I have been in awe. The world, the competition, my problems disappear but every meaning, birth and journey comes to light. I begin to forget what this world means but only what it was built by..not on. All I wanted was to expierance to peace, mentally. Until I watched this movie and I tried this in a empty roller rink. All by myself and I went into this field mode and I felt free.

seek it wid ya hands dont think about feel it, your hands am wiser thn your head ever gonna be, i carnt take you there junoh, hopes i can make you find a way . . . ITS JUST YOU THT BALL, THT FLAG this film is biggg mannnn shame a lot of ppl havent herd of it . . .

We often not see the "Field", rather the straight line to where we tend to go. Glad this movie section makes it so damn clear, that there is more! And it applies not only to golf players, also to all of us in life situations :-)

Ah shit, now my recommended is full of golf...

I didn’t realize that golf can be so poetic.

Wonderful scene. Long time since i seen this film. Very underated movie. May have to watch it agin soon:) #

This scene is kinda accurate to how it is for me when I play or even just hit balls at the driving range. It's focus, muscle memory and replicating that unique authentic swing that only works for you and no one else. I feel myself blanking everything out the same way, it's just me and the ball, like Bagger says here.

You better listen to Will Smith or he will slap that pretty boy smile to another dimension 😂

The quality of this video actually gets worse when I put my glasses on.

I see the field every Sunday morning when I go swing the wrenches, I just end up in the trees.

The most important aspect of this movie.........

the best golf story I've ever seen and so true to real golf!

This is 1 of the best golf films of alll time

From that moment on, he knows that he will forever be.......so much on the clock

Those of us who have endeared to this form of understanding have never been able to except help with our head let alone our hands.So it's not to surprising that spiritually were blessed beyond measure,the problem is humility and grace.They baffle the shit out of us in God's world.Along with him.

Tiger saw the field last Sunday.

I see the field and put the ball there every time - it's the field alongside the golf course

This movie was so good 👌

I wonder if Jada thought Will deserved an Oscar for this one too. Yes sir, masa, you is a great golfer.

It's a small role but my favorite Smith's job. He can perform very well when He's not trying to be goofy

Such a beautiful film! 👏❤️🏌🏽🏌🏽‍♀️

God damn it Will!!! We thought you learned your lesson at the end of Good Will Hunting!!!! Apparently not..... So now you gotta learn from another iconic man

This movie makes me cry. Yep, every time.

The magical black man always solves every sports movie heroes internal problem.

nice thing about will smith being in a movie, you know it's going to be a good show.

I got to give to the Irish and the Scottish for coming with a game that takes a beast and and tame s the very instinct that drives a man or women to focus and become one with the ball it's so peaceful and calming

this may be one of the iconic scenes. For the future the voice the camera work is fantastic

thank you for posting this momentous clip ... perhaps I've seen these fragments 55 times .. and every time I'm moved more than the time before ...

The art of talent to where you put all of your trust into your thoughts but the feel is real. The last stance between you & whatever you are seeking so if you can images it then it will prevale & come true. “ The Touch”

Will Smith: “... the tides and seasons, and the turn of the earth...” Flat-Earthers: REEEEEEEEEEE

Watching it for the third time. Especially after the Open Day at the Semperoper in Dresden watching the ballet training it makes me thinking of how difficult it is to convene a team, either on stage, on the shopfloor or the field. It is the small moves that make the difference when the field is choosing us. During my vivid playing time of Ultimate Frisbee there was one particular tournament when this perfect setting happened - team of unknown found together winning the the overall tournament:-)

This move describes my course to a T! This is everything I have taught! It's about Finding yourself, finding the Harmony with the world, with nature... It's about becoming one with all that is... You can find it in Golf, you can find it in Romance, you can find it in any endeavor you put your heart and soul into! It's There...

Greatest golf movie ever made.

Bruce McGill as Walter Hagan here, was spot on in this movie. What a great actor.

I've never seen or heard of this movie til 2022 or 2023. I'm a fan of Will Smith.

"What up ya'll? My name is Bagger Vance! Hittin' the ball's like making romance!"

Pair behind them saying, "Aww Christ Almighty hit da ball will ya? My mudda coulda wauked ta Southie in this time and she wicked slow!"

Lotta those shots were filmed on Jekyll island at Indian mounds course. Such a beautiful place. The beach battle scenes and several others in the movie Glory were filmed there also.

i picked up a golf club today, first time in 8 years and wow i need alot of practice

Favorite scene of the movie

Great cinematography and film making along similar lines of "The Natural". Stories within stories with an ability to make dreams feel real.

Legend is that the ball was a paid actor

I wouldn't mind seeing a sequel to this movie such a great film

@nomorephones The movie was about the Hindu Bhagavadgita, which talks about the destiny of people. Rannulph Junnuh is a play on the name Arjuna, which is the main character in the Gita. Bagger Vance is Krishna, the commonfolk avatar of Vishnu. Bobby Jones was in the path of knowledge, jnana marga, since he was golfing and getting college degrees. Walter Hagen wants kama and artha, pleasure and material success. Junnuh is stuck in the middle, and doesn't find out which path he's in until the end.

Best hockey movie ever

I need Bagger Vance this weekend to break 100 💯

Has to be one of the greatest Golf And Life Stories there is, the Movie Teaches, Patience, Persistence and Trust in Other People and Their Ability to Teach You Life Lessons, if Your Willing to Listen and Learn and Faith in Your Own Abilities, if Your Not Afraid to use them to there Full Potential.

Home in one ⛳ Will collects the club like hrs picking up a plate from a table & going off to wash it ...casual flow

They should make a part two of this with Bagger Vance teaching Chris Rock how to box.

Think about everything you love and all that you are... and write about it.

Legend of baggar Vance League of their own The natural Greatest sports movies ever made

FANTASTIC ENDING FILM

Serving our Father in Heaven is done EXACTLY the same way. HE gave us all our authentic swing ... everyone of us. That step of FAITH that we take when we see the field that represents ... HIS perfect will for our lives. All we have to do to know HIS peace and contentment in our lives ... is be willing to get ourselves out of the way. God gave us this game of honor to teach us more about HIS love for us ... to make us able to trust HIM completely. Just the same as when we let go of our lives ... our will ... our way of thinking ... and see it from God’s perspective. Learn to look at God’s will for us with soft eyes. Just get ourselves out of the way ... and seek HIM with our soul. Just you and the ball and the Spirit of your Heavenly Daddy on the golf course of life. Man , I could never play the game ... the greatest game that will ever be ... without HIM. Golf. I am grateful for this life experience. Semper Fi

Will Smith honestly dominates every single fucking role he plays. Damn

i love this movie

Most of the critics who didn't like this film were too "closed" to understand its meaning.

Completely underrated movie

This is not a golf movie. This is a Srimad Bhagavad Gita movie.

This scene where everything disappears makes me think what if there was nothing built on the earth how natural and beautiful it would be

That's One Off Will Smith's, Tribute Memorable Classic Movies.

used to LOVE this shit. such an underrated movie. plus Charleze Theron just looks so goddamn hot in 20's gear. always loved how it incorporated real golfers into the movie and gave us a glimpse at some of the men who made golf great.

Wonderful movie

Smith and Damon are both really good 'eye actors'. They don't need to talk, we just gotta look at their eyes to see what they are feeling.

it’s just you and the field. just you, that ball and the flag. Me, you and the clubs. it’s just the clubs, the tee, the ball, you, me, the field, and the clubs

Underrated movie.

Will Smith did such an amazing job in this movie.
