Caddying - Do the Preparation

If you would like to avoid the horrible first year that I experienced as a caddy on the golf course, then prep yourself. Following my first year as a caddy I would spend some time at a local public course to learn what the game of golf  was about. The practice green and first hole were straight out from the club house. The ninth hole came directly back to the club house. Thus, I could sit on the club house bench and watch real golfers as they teed off on the first hole and putted out on the ninth. Some of the key items that I noticed were:

  1.  Everyone was silent when the golfers were ready to tee it up
  2. After hitting their tee shot the golfers waited for the group in front to finish the hole before hitting their 2nd shots
  3. All golfers waited for the designated person to hit their shot before advancing
  4. If a golfer requested that the flag needed to be tended the designated player in the group would do the service without stepping in any players line
