[ QUOTE ]
$10 a guy is fine for this situation. Maybe a little more if he is exceptional. [/ QUOTE ] Are you kidding me? Do you think anyone would caddy if you make $30 for being out 4-5 hours in addition to the time that you have to wait for your group to go out? That could wrok out to less than minimum wage. I caddied for 5 years, and as recently as last summer I got paid a minimum of $30 per man for forecaddying. It was at a very rich country club, but there is no way that the going rate could be less than 20-25. Pay at least $30 and stop being such a cheap mo'fo.

Re: Tipping a caddy
plus a caddy gets paid a set amount for doing the job he has contracted to do.
if he just does an average job that is his pay. a better job tip him accordingly. that is what tipping is. have we all lost sight of what it is.

Re: Tipping a caddy
[ QUOTE ]
ive always seen the opposite happen...but at a golf course its generally male...so i guess so. I just used to work for tips...so i tend to tip well when i can. But when i worked...men usually tipped me better...but im a girl [/ QUOTE ] What about bribes? I was a starter at a public course for a couple summers, I didn't get tips but I got about 3 or 4 bribes a week, ALWAYS from men. No woman ever tried to bribe me. What's up with that?

Re: Tipping a caddy
at most places i've been, there's no difference between'tip' and 'wage' - it makes things easier for the club to consider the caddies as independant contractors and just set a minimum 'tip' level so they don't have to pay them a salary.

Re: Tipping a caddy
I caddied from 92-94 in HS and I would carry two bags, etc. etc. etc. I would get between $20-$30 per bag. So adjust and inflate and infer as necessary.
Doing this while routinely hungover and dehydrated in sweltering humidity has resulted my hatred of golf as an adult.
