Welcome back to Caddie Tales! In this episode, Mark and Nick kick off a brand-new caddie season, sharing practical advice and insider tips for anyone planning a trip to a world-renowned golf destination. From how to structure the perfect golf getaway (Mark's opinion: play the hardest course first!) to navigating the unpredictable spring weather, they cover it all. The guys offer candid reflections on the life of a caddie—the excitement of opening day, the exhaustion of marathon golf trips, the art of sizing up a group at bag drop, and the subtle etiquette moments that define a great round.

Expect plenty of laughs as Mark and Nick swap stories about first-tee jitters, memorable loops, and the unexpected challenges caddies face—from soaking wet bags to marathon walks into the wind. They’ll also dish out invaluable advice for getting the most out of your caddy, maximizing your experience on and off the course, and keeping your head in the game (especially when the scorecard doesn’t go as planned).

Whether you’re a seasoned golfer, a caddie, or someone who loves the intersection of the human spirit and the game of golf, this episode serves up wisdom, humor, and heartfelt moments from both sides of the bag. Let’s tee it up for another season—there’s always a next shot.
