6	* Pretty much every long shot Happy makes is thoroughly cool. Shooter looks pretty uncomfortable the first time he sees it, and the second time he sees it, Happy gets ''a hole in one''. '''On a Par Four.'''
7	* Happy gets his clock cleaned at a Pro-AM tour by none other than ''Series/ThePriceIsRight'''s Creator/BobBarker. Extra points for the finishing blow; Barker let Happy believe he'd knocked him unconscious, only for Bob to grab Happy by the throat without even opening his eyes.
8	-->'''Happy:''' You like that, old man? You want a piece of me?!
9	-->'''Bob:''' [[PreAsskickingOneLiner I don't want a piece of you]], ''[[PreAsskickingOneLiner I want the whole]] [[SuddenlyShouting THING]]''!
10	** Later:
11	--->'''Happy Gilmore''': It wasn't my fault. There was this guy out there giving me crap, and it took every ounce of energy not to hit ''him''.
12	--->'''Shooter [=McGavin=]''': So instead you decide to headbutt Bob Barker. Oh, who ''won'' that fight, by the way?
13	** Since Barker had been showing Happy NoSympathy about a very blatant and insufferable heckler, he did deserve to get in [[CurbStompCushion that one punch]], if only that one punch.
14	** Speaking of the insufferable heckler, there was a deleted scene where Happy gets back at him by challenging him to play golf, only to fail miserably.
15	* When Shooter mocks Happy and challenges him (on the golf course), he takes it a little too literally and [[HairTriggerTemper breaks a bottle to threaten Shooter.]]
16	* During Happy's and Shooter's competition towards the end, Happy overshoots a putt, and Shooter smirks. And then the ball turns around and rolls backward, down a slope, into the hole. And to put the cap on it, Happy proceeds to {{Troll}} Shooter.
17	-->'''Happy:''' [[SarcasmMode I didn't see that; did that go in?]] [[BlatantLies I wasn't watching.]] [[SarcasmMode Did it... did it go in the hole? I wasn't watching. I know I saw it go up...]] ''[[[ScrewThisImOuttaHere Shooter walks off in a huff]]]'' [[SarcasmMode ...did it come back in? All right.]]
18	* [[WhatCouldHaveBeen In a sadly deleted scene]], Happy beating up the orderly (played by Creator/BenStiller) at the nursing home. To clarify: the guy made sad, elderly people work for ''hours'' to make quilts for him to sell and monitored their phone calls. When Happy takes his grandma out of this nightmare, he announces she told him all about it and the orderly tries bullshitting his way out of it. Happy throws him out a window. [[TheDogBitesBack Then the old ladies he's been working to death beat him with purses!]]
19	* Happy wrestles [[NeverSmileAtACrocodile an alligator]] to get his ball back. He puts a brief strangle-hold on its neck, holds its jaws closed for several seconds and then ''headbutts'' it unconscious, before ultimately beheading the thing as a gift to Chubbs. In-universe as well, as the crowd was cheering for him after the whole fight; you don't see that sight on a golf course every day.
20	* Shooter shoots the golf ball off Larson's foot without hurting him.
21	* Not only have Happy's golf skills improved after his suspension, but he can also control himself and even make comebacks to Shooter instead of resorting to violence.
22	--> '''Happy''': [[TookALevelInBadass Happy learned how to putt]]! Uh-oh!
23	--> '''Shooter''': ''[scores]'' You don't learn this in the hockey rink.
24	--> '''Happy''': ''[scores]'' [[InsultBackfire You wanna know what the pathetic thing is]]? [[TakeThat You've been playing golf your whole life]].
25	* The final shot. At that point the number of strokes either had didn't matter, Happy deserved to take the win for that hole in one alone.
26	* Larson [[BreakTheHaughty scares the crap out of Shooter]] after the Shooter hits the ball off of Larson's foot.
27	-->'''Mr. Larson''': That's two thus far, Shooter.\
28	'''Shooter [=McGavin=]''': Oh, you can count. Good for you.\
29	'''Mr. Larson''': And ''you'' can count... on ''me'', waiting for you in the parking lot!\
30	(''crowd "oooo"s in surprise while Shooter runs away, followed by someone in the crowd mockingly calling "Run Shooter! Run for your life, man!"'')
31	* Larson and a bunch of Happy's other fans chasing down Shooter and beating the crap out of him after he ran off with Happy's jacket.
32	* Virginia making a perfect hockey shot from across the rink. Even without a goalie, such a long shot is very difficult. Even Happy can't believe it, saying "talk about your all-time backfires" after Virginia makes the goal.
33	* Happy, instead of getting mad or throwing a fit, [[InsultBackfire turns one of Shooter's putdowns back on him]].
34	-->'''Shooter [=McGavin=]''': I eat pieces of shit like you for breakfast.
35	-->'''Happy''': You eat pieces of shit for breakfast?
36	-->'''Shooter''': ''(after a long {{Beat}})'' [[LameComeback No]]!
