    I would like to have jack or tiger to be my caddy. I started at the age of 17.

    I would love to have Retief Goosen as a caddy to see the game from his perspective and because we share the same hometown and high school he is a big isperation to me. For a laugh I would love to play with Will Smith.

    Best regards

    I started playing at 45 years of age at a golfcourse in Germany.
    My favorite caddy would be prins Charles. He knows how to serve people very well and he knows a lot about playing golf or doesn’t he???

    I started playing at 30 years of age..’learned’ to hit the ball with clubs off the rack at Montgomery Ward and the ‘ping pong’ like practice balls.
    I had one lesson..after several years of play…I decided to buy new clubs. After an hour lesson the teacher said just pick anything off the rack.

    After that I figured lessons were worthless. I’m now less than 30 days from 79. Have NEVER used a caddy and would have no idea what to do with one.

    i think i would really like to have TIGER as my caddie, i think i could give him a good 18 holes of laughter, and he just might (might mind you ) give me a tip or two.

    I have definitely decided on a celebrity caddy — Natalie Gulbis, the only problem is, her dad often caddies for her and would always accompany her otherwise..SIGH…..

    I started at the age of 32 .John has quiTe an unusual swing but it looks like it works for him. I would like as my celeberty caddie Justin Long or Gerard Buttler.

    My choice would be Steve Davis. a few years ago i was course ranger at Hever Castle Golf Club. I was standing on the 16th Tee and Steve Davis asked me how he should play this hole. I looked at him and thought he must be joking. So i gave him my best shot. I said well after you have hit a nice straight drive you will a 5 or 6 iron to reach the green, i said you must hit your second shot straight or the ball will run down a bank either side of the fairway and then you will have a lot of trouble. He turned to me and said what do i do after the seventh shot. He hit his drive and lost the ball!!!
