His Villainous Deeds[]
- When meeting Happy Gilmore for the first time, he tricks him into getting his clothes wet by a bunch of sprinklers by telling him to meet him and his friends at the location with them in the evening.
- He is shown to act like a jerk even towards his own caddies as shown when he delightfully fires them after they've assisted him in his games for no good reason at all.
- When Happy Gilmore begins making progress in the golf games, he attempts to sabotage it by secretly bribing one of his fans, Donald, into heckling his turns, causing him to screw up and go into a rage.
- Out of spite, he ends up buying Happy Gilmore's grandmother's house in an attempt to make Happy Gilmore forfeit the golf games, threatening to keep the house for himself unless he does so.
- He cheats in the games once again by having Donald hit him with his car, leaving him hurt albeit with no serious injuries.
- When Happy ends up winning, Shooter makes an attempt to steal the jacket and get away with it only to end up being chased down and beaten by an angry mob of spectators.
Why He Doesn't Stand Out?[]
- His worst actions amount to standard jerk behavior, sabotage, cheating, and indirect assault that does not leave any serious injuries, making him very bog-standard.
- He fails the heinous standards to Hal, who is bog-standard himself and yet still did worse as he forced a bunch of elderly residents to perform hard manual labor and giving them death threats, exploiting them for his own personal financial gain.
- He has moments where he is not taken seriously.
