Video Description
At Cedar Creek Corrections Center in Washington, golf has become more than a game, it’s a second chance.
Inside this minimum-security prison, superintendent Tim Thrasher started the Cedar Creek Golf Club: a program that teaches inmates patience, discipline, and respect through golf.
Every Wednesday night, 12 men pick up borrowed clubs, hit foam balls across a makeshift range, and talk about the same things golfers talk about anywhere — good shots, bad shots, and what’s next.
In this GOLF Magazine Original, meet Nico, Tejuan, and Rodron, three inmates whose time in the program has changed how they see themselves and the world outside. And follow their first-ever trip beyond the prison walls to play a real round at The Home Course.
