Hmmm??? A caddy huh??? We might be able to work something out!
We are hoping to go sometime around the end of October this year. I will be our first trip in some time.
Yeah, you can call me your camera caddy.
Seriously, though, in years past I have been a employee-caddy for a PGA-sponsored event where we needed caddies to carry the bags for some of our bigger customer executives on Pro-Am days: Tuesdays and Wednesdays of a tour week (3 amateurs pay money to play with a professional PGA player).
I wanted an excuse to get out of the office so I put my name in the ear of the Event Director and when he had an Account Manager cancel to carry the bag for one of his customers, the ED remembered my name and called me. I was on the road in less than 24 hours headed to Gotham City to tote a bag.
I got a crash course in PGA caddying-I had the little colored vest and everything. I lived "inside the ropes and the clubhouse" for two days. Tony, this will help me when I carry your camera bag so bear with me.
There are 3 rules to caddying on the PGA Pro-Am days:
1. Show up (don't be like my predecessor and cancel out)
2. Keep up (your Am doesn't want to wait for you in the fairway to tote his 60 lb bag)
3. Shut up (don't say, "Oh, I bet we can find your ball over by those houses, Mr. Scupper")
Tony, I promise to be good.
