Lessons in Loops: What Caddies Really Value in Their On-Course Partners
Welcome back to the Caddie Tales Podcast! In this episode, Mark and Nick pull back the curtain on what really makes a great day on the course—not just between players and caddies, but between caddies themselves. While most golf talk centers around what golfers want from their caddies, today the focus shifts to the camaraderie, teamwork, and sometimes the little annoyances that come with working side-by-side.
Mark and Nick share candid stories from the caddyshack, discuss the importance of complementary skills and positive attitudes, and reveal the underappreciated art of "the chop"—splitting tips to make the day fair and fun for all. They laugh about one-uppers, reminisce about acts of service (like carrying four bags uphill), and dive into the unsung ways caddies support each other through long, grueling rounds. Whether you're a veteran looper or just someone looking for lessons from the golf world to carry into life, this episode is full of practical advice, heartfelt compliments, and the kind of friendly ribbing that keeps every round interesting.
Tune in for stories, honest reflections, and tips for making every day out there feel a little more like a team effort.
