Anyone here caddy during the summer? I worked in an office last summer which was cool and all, but I figure, while I have the chance, I might as well work outside before Im stuck inside all my life.

Thinking about caddying this summer....Ive heard from some friends that they love it, and some who hate it. Thoughts, experience? Worth it?

I did it a couple of times years ago......the only time I liked it was when the guy I was caddying for was playing a bunch of different betting games w/ the others in the foursome..and he won big time....he paid me $200

Step 1:What u do is take a go-kart, run em over, take their money, then take of to be a caddy sumwhere else
Step 2: Repeat process until satisfied with the amount of money needed to buy illegal things

some of my friends do it. They make pretty good money. Sometimes they just have to drive the guy around in a cart.

The only thing about Caddying is that it pays well depending on which club you caddy for, but you usually have to go through 2 weeks of training before that. Its a pain in the ass. And you don't get paid while you are some other golfers bitch for 2 weeks. It also takes a good amount of time before you start reeling in the big wages, you wont start out making 60 bucks for 18. It takes a year or more of commitment to the club for that. Depending on where you go, this might not affect you. Just letting you in on it.

If you can actually read a green, you can caddy for pople who would pay you more. I used to caddy, if people at the club know you know your shit, they'll pay a bit more. I had a few offers to caddy in pro tourneys, but I turned them down because I wasn't sure I could still call shots accurately...and it'd suck to make a bad call.

i mow lawns at the local c.c...and its seriously like caddy shack, except there werent any hot women there. we used to play golf in our work clothes, chase gophers in the workman (4 wheel drive golfcart with a large ass engine) and try to hit them with .22's. Welded my front yard rail with Barney our mechanic (real name Barney).
