What’s a Caddy

Posted by Golfer on January 3rd, 2008 at 12:12am

In golf, you will sometimes ask or be assigned to a caddy. A caddy is basically an assistant to you. When you arrive at a tee to a new hole, they will tell you the yardage and where to aim. They will also do this on every other shot and putt of yours. And like lets say your about 170 yards from the pin. Your caddy will advise you on what club they think you should hit. Also, when you hit a shot and make a divot, they will replace the divot for you which is a nice little luxury. And when your ball is dirty, they will mark it, clean it, and then put it back down so you can keep your golf balls clean. I lose quite a few golf balls when I am out on the course. But with a caddy, they have very good eyes and can sometimes find your golf ball that you wouldn’t of been able to find on your own. So you won’t lose many golf balls with a caddy. But overall, caddies are basically your personal golf assistant. They are not necessary but quite the luxury.
