Summary

Caddyshack meets Breaking Bad

Tom and Carol have the perfect life: good job, happy home, two wonderful kids. While Carol yearns for Tom to join in her search for new-age spiritual bliss, Tom's boss insists he take up golf as a business networking tool. In a classic cautionary tale of a happy marriage gone adrift, follow our hero Tom, as his obsession takes hold and steers him down a dark, twisted road of substance abuse: in this case the addictive substance is golf! 

When Tom's golf lust and Carol's spirit world collide, magic happens. (Spoiler Alert!) Tom comes to believe he's channeling the spirit of the great one, Ben Hogan, and becomes hell bent on unlocking the secret of the "Hogan Swing." Dismayed, Carol seeks out other golf widows for advice but when she hears one woman exclaim, "My husband wouldn't have sex with me now unless I painted myself green and stuck a flag between my legs", Carol puts her foot down: "It's either me or golf!" What Tom does next turns their world upside down.
