The Golf Nut
About The Golf Nut
Members spend a day at El Caballero Golf Club, called the most beautiful in California. Non-member Billy Divott, played by Billy Bevan, is too keen on the game. He wrecks the round while teaching players he thinks are less experienced. Sand traps, water, and stinging insects make it worse.
