Beginner Golfer To Pro in 1000 days | The Real Happy Gilmore Story Ep.1

What does Cam Smith, Bryson DeChambeau, or Scottie Scheffler have in common with a bloke juggling work, family, and 5am alarms just to chase a golf dream? Not much. That’s exactly why this story matters. This series follows a regular Aussie battler with a big swing and a bigger mission, qualifying for the Australian Open. From brutal swing rebuilds and gym sessions to the silent grind of solo rounds, it’s a firsthand look at what it actually takes to go from scratch to the big stage. No coaches, no sponsors, no shortcuts just a camera rolling, a dream burning, and a long walk ahead.

GOING PRO - EP 1: A cinematic golf documentary following Luke Brown as he begins his journey from amateur golfer to pursuing professional golf and Australian Open qualification. Shot in a raw, run‑and‑gun documentary style, this series captures the real grind of golf: the golf swing rebuilds, the physical transformation, the mental battle, and the day‑to‑day work that happens far away from the leaderboard.

This episode introduces Luke at the starting line of his golf transformation, carrying extra weight, inconsistent ball‑striking, and a long way from competitive golf. The series tracks his progress through intense training blocks, golf fitness work, swing changes, early tournament attempts, and the reality of trying to turn a normal life into a pro golf pursuit.

For viewers who follow golf documentaries, sports transformation stories, amateur golf journeys, golf improvement content, golf swing analysis in a docu format, or the style of Netflix sports stories, this series is built for you.

Weekly episodes cover the reality of the grind: golf swing rebuild, golf conditioning, golf mobility, competitive pressure, course management, tournament prep, and the long‑term challenge of becoming a high‑level player.

Shot by Local Films in an immersive, handheld, NeedEssentials‑inspired style with natural light, real sound, real moments, and a storytelling approach closer to adventure filmmaking than traditional golf videos.

Follow the full amateur‑to‑pro golf journey as Luke works toward Australian Open qualification.
