On becoming a caddy.

tworooks · #1 07-20-2005, 04:40 PM

So I think I want to be a caddy. There are a couple of golf clubs around. So, I would go ask the clubs these questions, but I'm here so I might as well ask you guys.

Do they provide caddies for the golfers, or do golfers have their own caddies? If it depends, then do most golfers have their own caddy? At these casual places, do they expect the caddies to help out in their shots or would I basically be the guy who just carries the bag around giving the them the club they want.

I'm not much of a golfer, so if I would be more than just a little b!tch carrying around the bags, I would have to learn the game and what clubs do what, which I really don't want to. Hopefully the casual players just want the b!tch. But any answers would be appreciated, thanks.

Good luck with this. I'd have a Plan B. I tried almost the same thing as what you're doing now back in college. I got looked at funny and a "don't call us, we'll call you" type response. Maybe you can stop by the landscaper's office on the way out and be his bitch.

Next summer (you'll be 18 then, right?), get a job as a barback at a sportsbar. You'll be setting yourself up for a solid college income when you go off to school.

I was under the impression that caddies have mostly been replaced by carts with that satellite crap.

I give him 9 holes before he quits.

You carry the bag(s). You laugh at their jokes. Then they hit a few into the woods, get pissed off, and stiff you on the tip. Then after the round you get to wash some old dude's balls.

Watch Caddyshack several times.

Seriously.

Be the fvcking ball.

Sounds like you might be more suited to open a casino in your house.

00t sucks. 00t tells him he should be a caddy, then when he takes your advice everyone rips on him. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I didn't read the "what job" thread. Caddying stinks though.

OOT really is all about mixed signals, anyways.

Well, he should be a caddy. Now we're telling him that there's no way in hell he's going to be one.
