Pin Positions, Player Egos, and Language Barriers: Real-Life Tales from Caddie Life
This week on The Caddie Tales Podcast, the guys talk about adapting on the fly and handling real-life situations every caddie (and golfer) encounters on the course. Mark shares his experiences caddying with new recruits, reflecting on how to mentor without overstepping and remembering his own days as a rookie.
The hosts dive into a series of tricky scenarios—how to deal with players who lose their cool and toss clubs, the challenges of caddying for people with language barriers or disabilities, and the ever-awkward topic of what to do when you spot someone cheating (especially when there’s money on the line). Mark and Nick give honest (and often humorous) accounts of keeping their professionalism intact, handling strong personalities, and maintaining the golf course as neutral, common ground—even when political chatter or one-upmanship from fellow caddies creeps in.
