  IF IT'S IMPORTANT FOR CADDIES TO BE HONEST IN THEIR EXPRESSIONS TO HELP THE GOLFER FOR WHOM THEY ARE CADDYING, THEN THIS GUY IS GOOD AT HIS JOB.

  Anyone ever hear the Bob & Tom interview with Charles Barkley explaining a discussion he had during a round of golf he played with Tiger Woods?

  Tiger teed-off then Charles teed-off, and Tiger said to Charles while walking to their tee-shots, "Did you here about that Super Walmart their going to build"? Charles said, "No, where they going to build it at"? Tiger said, "Somewhere between your tee-shot and mine?

  Sorry if I'm off-topic Chipsalot. Your post reminded me of that Bob & Tom interview.

  When I was about 14 or 15 or so, I used to caddy for a guy who would drink a 40 ounce bottle of whiskey on the front 9 and a 26 ounce bottle on the back 9....in a tournament! (absolute truth! This guy was a RAGING alcoholic!!) (for some reason he didn't win much....go figure, eh?)

  Anyway, the first time I caddied for this guy, he pulled his tee-shot on the par-3 4th hole behind a tree.  We walked up to the ball, and he said, "Well caddy, what do you think I should use here?"  I said nothing.....just handed him his whiskey.  I was his regular caddy for the next 2 or 3 years.

  He was almost never in contention for anything (he won a KP once), but I've got some of the best stories from working with this guy.  The fact that he paid way more than anyone else, was a "happy drunk", and used to let me and a couple of the other caddies hang out in his RV and drink after each tournament didn't hurt either.

  The very first job I ever had was a caddy at a country club just outside St. Louis Missouri I was twelve yrs old. The cadddy-master chose randomly & one day he calls my number and low & behold I was picked to carry Stan "the man" Musial's golf bag.....a rabid Cardinals baseball fan I was thrilled. After the round Stan signs my paycard but I refused to turn it in and to this very day it is one of my most revered treasures & truly one of my most cherished childhood memories.

  My Daughter used to caddy for me and for the longest time she used to think the name of the game was "AWWWW F@#K!!".

  I used to caddy for my dad, I only got paid if he won though. Luckily he was a damned good player.

  All of this demonstrates why I have always found it highly embarrassing to use a caddy - besides a general discomfort in being waited on, kowtowed to, patronized or the like. There are some places where caddies are mandatory. There were the beautiful girls in Malaysia who, as I recall (a) never said a word, and (b) never broke a sweat. Then there was the caddy at the Royal Fez golf club in Morocco who, after witnessing a gallery of wormburners, wiffs and whatnot could find it in himself to murmur, "That one wasn't so bad, Sir."

  LOve this post, my first job was also a caddy in NW Penn, golf season about 4 months max. Got the lucky draw one day and caddied for the President and founder of the Zippo lighter. Hit his ball in the lake (mid June). I took off my shoes and socks and went in and found his ball. Water temp maybe 50 degrees. We were paid 75 cents to carry a bag for 18 holes. He gave me a $2.00 tip for retrieving his ball. Stayed his caddy from the age of 11 until I graduated from high school. My first job, working for Zippo mfg, still have 5 sleeves of Zippo SDX balls from the 60's. Great memories are priceless.
