Answer 1

SIGN BOYY

Answer 2

Caddying is a great way to make money. I love caddying; its fun for them ; it is fun for me. WIN WIN.

Answer 3

Caddying was a fantastic way to make money prior to the introduction of golf carts. With carts providing clubs with their greatest source of revenue, the bag totter has fallen by the wayside. There are a few prestigious clubs who still carry on the caddy tradition but most are resort destinations.

Answer 4

u get real good money if ur good... depends on where u work for how much cash u get

Answer 5

I caddy at Muirfield Village Golf Club (where they play the Memorial Tournament) and I make around $120-$150 for double bagging 18 holes. Our program is based all on tips though by the players and there is no minimum wage paid or anything by the course.  I would not recommend trying to double bag unless you're strong and in good shape..just stick to one for awhile. However, I tend to hate the part of caddying where you have to wait around for hours to try to get an assignment.  You'll be the low man on the todem pole and it can get real frustrating when there's guys who have been there forever..good luck though if you try it but I would not recommend caddying if you're not patient.

Answer 6

You'll probably make minimum wage from the course, but you'll get tips from the good customers.

BUT, you'll only get tips if your friendly, if you know the course and know the game really well. Alot of golfers ask their caddy's for advice about what club to play, where the green is, distance to the flag, what the green is running like (slow/fast), slope of the green.

And you have to walk alot.

Answer 7

if your good you get a lot. It depends on the course. Have fun walking though, I don't envy your job

Answer 8

Great summer job!  You can caddy in the early morning which leaves you plenty of time to enjoy the summer.  You tip will depend on your knowledge and the course you're caddying at.  I would say $40 bones is typical.  

Enjoy the walk!
