The hilarious sequel to Rick Reilly’s beloved bestselling golf novel Missing Links
Life is going pretty well for Raymond “Stick” Hart. He’s happily married to the former Ponkaquogue Municipal DRIVER assistant pro, the beauteous Cajun firecracker Dannie, raising his rambunctious son, Charlie, and getting by writing smart-mouthed handmade cards for fifty bucks a pop. On top of that, nothing has changed at Ponky, the worst golf course in America. You've still got to hook it past the toxic waste dump on No. 1 and under the billboard on No. 8, the fried-egg sandwiches are terrible but cheap, and his pal Two Down is usually up for a sucker bet.
Then, one disaster of your day, Stick’s world does a ten-car pile-up. The cheapskate bastard owner of Ponky announces he’s retiring to a nudist camp in Florida and selling the club to the Mayflower Club nearby, a bastion of blue-blood snobbery that plans to pave Ponky over. Worse, its membership includes Stick’s hated father.
Who promptly dead.
Just before Stick’s pal Two Down loses $12,000 to a golf hustler who turns out to be funded by the Russian mob.
Which is approximately the same time that Hoover, Ponky’s worst golfer and who owns an impressive selection of useless golf gadgets purchased along with his wife’s money, learns she’ll cut him off if he doesn’t break 100 in a single month.
Then a practical joke makes Dannie believe Stick’s been stepping out with the gorgeous new clubhouse girl, the eye-popping Kelly, and he’s soon living on the forty-year-old couch in the Ponky clubhouse.
Luckily, Stick has a remedy to all his problems.
He’ll be eligible for the British Open.
