At the upscale Bushwood Country Club, tensions run high as several eccentric characters compete for various prizes and recognition. Danny Noonan, a young caddy eager to secure a college scholarship, tries to win favor with Judge Elihu Smails, a co-founder of the club. Meanwhile, Al Czervik, a brash and wealthy new member, disrupts the serene atmosphere with his outrageous behavior and constant mockery of the aristocratic members, particularly Judge Smails. Ty Webb, a carefree and charismatic golfer, offers Danny guidance and wisdom on navigating the complexities of life and the club.

The chaos at Bushwood is further amplified by Carl Spackler, the eccentric groundskeeper, who is on a mission to eradicate a destructive gopher that threatens the golf course. As Carl's unorthodox methods escalate in absurdity, the balance at the club becomes increasingly precarious. Rivalries intensify, comedic mishaps abound, and Danny's aspirations hang in the balance as the competition reaches its peak. This series of intertwined stories sets the stage for a final showdown that promises to determine not only the future of the club but also Danny's own path forward.
