Movie Info

Four young friends sneak onto an exclusive country club for 18 holes of golf, and begin a tradition that will strengthen their bonds and weather the test of time in this affectionate drama from writer/director Doug McKeon (On Golden Pond). Ben, Hank, Charlie, and John are four spirited youths with a shared love of golf.

Over the years, each of the four friends set down different paths in life, but through it all they never miss a game. When 60 years have passed, and the time comes to reflect on their rich and varied experiences, all four realize that it was the power of friendship that helped them endure hard times, and never lose hope that things will get better. Burt young, Ronnie Cox, John Heard, and Pat Morita star.

I only caught this film half way through, but enjoyed the part that I saw and thought it was a great idea for a film. I?m sure my rating would be higher if I?d managed to watch the whole film.
