Danny Noonan works as a caddie at the upscale Bushwood Country Club in Nebraska to earn enough money to go to college. Danny often caddies for Ty Webb, a suave and talented golfer and the son of one of Bushwood's co-founders. Danny decides to gain favor with Judge Elihu Smails, the country club's stodgy co-founder and director of the caddie scholarship program, by caddying for him. Meanwhile, Carl Spackler, a somewhat-unhinged groundskeeper, is hunting a gopher that threatens to damage the course. He employs a variety of methods to kill the gopher (e.g. shooting, drowning) without success.
