    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Lucas Black is an accomplished golfer of about a scratch handicap. In 2013 he tried out his dream of becoming a Pro Golfer on the NGA Pro Golf Tour. For this reason he is one of the few actors that has been able to realistically portray a professional golf swing.
    • Goofs
      The morning after a torrential rain near the end of the film, Luke is instructed to bury a box in a small hole dug into the earth. The dirt - whether recently dug or not - would have shown some moisture retained from the storm and would not have been the fine dusty powdered dirt in this scene following that size of a thunderstorm. The hole, too, would have shown some moisture absorbed into the earth.
    • Quotes
      • [first lines]
      • Johnny Crawford: How can a game have such an effect on a man's soul? The way I see it, how can it not? You don't choose the game, it chooses you. And when it does, life and golf become forever connected. That's how it was for a young man named Luke Chisholm.
