Hello folks,
I am going to Cabot in a few weeks with two of my friends. We are all high handicappers (17 and up).
We are staying one night at the resort and playing Cliffs and links once each. We are also playing the Nest course (10 hole par 3).
We have traveled for golf before, but it is our first time at such a high end resort/course and we have booked one caddie for the three of us when we play Cliffs and Links
I had 2 questions with regards to Caddies:
1. Is it worth it having one caddie for the group, especially if we are high hanicappers? I was thinking we should have the caddie for at least one of the rounds, because it is a novelty for us, but was considering canceling the caddy for the second round so it could just be us out there enjoying each others company. Thoughts on this?
2. How are caddies paid? Do we pay for the caddy at the proshop, do we pay the caddy directly? Do we pay a caddy fee at the proshop and then tip the caddy directly? How much do you tip a caddy especially if its just one caddy for the whole group?
Thanks in advance for your help/opinions
