Danny Moran had always tackled the challenges of suburban family life, running a business and preserving his legendary status in competitive amateur golf with enough good cheer to playfully rate himself "top-five world-wide" at many a domestic task (charcoal-pyramiding, turf and brush detail,  liberating stubborn jar lids,  sort 'n' fold laundry ops:,  etc.)  But when these day-to-day routines unravel into a far more sobering reality, everything he once took for granted gets turned upside down -- and puts some of his most fiercely-held convictions to the test.  

 After taking three years off from golf to deal with the escalating turmoil in his life, the 49-year-old Danny Mo returns to his hometown to make what is expected to be a ceremonial appearance in the only state championship he had never won, and attempts something in the final round that no one -- not Tiger, not Phil, nor Jack nor Arnie in their prime -- could even think of pulling off.  What takes place stuns the Door County locals and becomes both national news and a rumor-laden public fascination.  It isn’t until the final hole of the tournament that his son (and caddie for the event), Maurice “Mo” Moran, discovers how messy his dad's life has become – for which he believes he is partly to blame.   But it’s the rest of the mess that scares Mo even more.

 Family, health, work, and a passion for sports and competition are precariously balanced against elements of faith, regret, mortality and infinite possibility in a familiar world that becomes harder to recognize as the challenges mount.  Yet through all the personal and competitive ups and downs and meandering progress, hope remains and redemption beckons -- for both Danny and Mo Moran.
