Beryman: i will take Kat and her knowledge.... and with her calculator and personality it is a no lose situation!
Last year I played at a private course that requires you to have a fore-caddy.
The idiot I got stuck with was cute ... it's just he didn't know squat about the course. Any time I asked him a question outside the obvious, he would pull out his yardage book. The thing was, I bought a yardage book in the pro shop before the round.
He was more of a walking golf cart than a caddy. And I had to pay for him to lug my clubs around. At the end of the round I gave him a tip ... "learn the course and be prepared for questions" along with $10. He was a bit pissed that I didn't give him more.
I would have rather had a golf cart! Probably would have given me more insightful advice too than the pinhead I got stuck with.
