Default Re: On becoming a caddy.

Hey, I caddied for 4 summers during HS at a country club near my house. At the time I started, I didn't know much about golf.

One thing you don't want to happen is for someone to ask your advice...and you don't have a clue...and just guess. e.g. Don't pretend to know the play of each green if you really don't.

The advice others have given is very good, esp. on knowing where their ball is, staying out of their line, etc. also make sure the clubs are always clean and readily available (e.g. when they chip onto the green and go to hand you their wedge, have the putter in your other hand ready to give to them.).

And, yes, be prepared to put up with a bunch of crap.
