About the book: Michael Blaine is the CrossCreek Golf & Country Club Sandbagger. On a glorious autumn day in southern Ontario his Saturday morning playing partners have finally taken revenge by strapping him to his golf bag (stuffed with 15 clubs and excess golf balls) and tossed him feet first into the pond on the par three 17^th hole. As he sinks up to his neck in the pond, he ponders his golfing attitude, his business career, and his marriage.

As each group of golfers plays through from the 17^th tee, he tries to enlist a rescue team but for some of them he simply must duck his head under water to avoid the killer tee shot.

In Chapter 18, (of 19 chapters) after celebrating a hole-in-one the “fully loaded”, firing squad comes out to the 17^th from the clubhouse, and take aim at Mikey. Convincing the members and the goose chasing guard dog, Kaida, that he is worth rescuing is about as difficult as finding a job.

Tag along on Mikey’s redemption and, with any luck, find a golf tip and a life, business, or relationship lesson in each chapter.
