Coasting on the reputation of his golf-champion wife Alma (Phyllis Hill), Chick Farley has landed a job as resident pro at an exclusive golf club. To supplement his income, Chick begins blackmailing club official Erwin Brandt (Harry Townes), and also embezzles money from the club's pro shop. Intending to place the blame for a $3000 deficit on his assistant Jim Harrell (Alan Hale Jr.), Chick makes a phone call to club member Hamilton Burger--only to be bludgeoned to death with a sand wedge as Burger listens in! Naturally, Harrell is charged with the murder, and just as naturally, Perry Mason (Raymond Burr) defends the poor sap.
