Show Description: Henry Redhawk dreams of joining the prestigious Redwood Course Society of Golf, a club so exclusive it has no members left. Henry embarks on a hilariously complicated quest to find a sponsor in country club society where he ends up getting mixed up in a retiree's screwball scheme to fake death to play more golf. Coming out of this comedic maelstrom, Henry finally finds the right person to sponsor his acceptance.
