Trayce is licking his wounds in Palm Springs, California where there are endless golf courses to get his swing back. His cell phone is hiding from the press, his manager, dad and, coach in the dungeon of his armature golf bag, the pro bag is also hiding at home- in the trash container .

Daisy Dawn just had a tire blow out. In the middle of nowhere. The hot desert in Joshua Tree National Park is no place to stay stranded. She read before her trip that she should stay with her car. Don’t leave and go looking for help. Should she wait for the tow truck that had failed to show or take the bad tire and the ride offered by the hot looking driver in the shiny convertible, with gold clubs riding shot gun? He assured her by showing his driver’s license and PGA card that he was a safe bet.

Can the two make the cut together?

Spring Swing (working title) is coming soon.
