Who's Your Caddy? : Looping for the Great, Near Great, and Reprobates of Golf
The funniest and most popular sportswriter in America abandons his desk at Sports Illustrated to caddy for some of the world’s most famous golfers, and some celebrity duffers, recounting it all in this hilarious and revealing look at the world of golf.

Who knows a golfer best? Who’s with them every minute of every round, hears their muttering, knows whether they cheat? Their caddies, of course. So sportswriter Rick Reilly figured that he could learn a lot about the players and their games by caddying, even though he had absolutely no idea how to do it. Amazingly, some of the best golfers in the world—including Jack Nicklaus, David Duval, Tom Lehman, John Daly, Casey
Martin, and Jill McGill—agreed to let Reilly carry their bags at actual PGA and LPGA Tour events. To round out his portrait of the golfing life, Reilly also caddied at the Masters, persuaded Deepak Chopra and Donald Trump to use him as a caddy, accompanied high-rolling golf hustlers in Las Vegas around the course, and carried the bag for a blind golfer.

In Who’s Your Caddy?, Reilly chronicles his experiences in the same inimitable style that makes his back-page column for Sports Illustrated a must-read for more than twenty million people every week. From his laugh-out-loud portrait of Deepak Chopra decomposing on the green, to his portraits of good ol’ boys who bet $100,000 a round, to his hilarious descriptions of his own ineptitude as a caddy, to his insights into what
makes the greats of golf so great, Reilly combines a wicked wit with an expert’s eye in a most original and entertaining look at golf.

Who’s Your Caddy? is the next best thing to a great round of golf. It is sure to delight low-handicappers, high-handicappers, and everyone in between. 

Tiger Woods How I Play Golf

There's no denying that Tiger Woods has taken golf by storm. It seems like every time this 25-year-old swings a club, another PGA record is shattered. While his explosive drives, accurate approach shots, and steady putter certainly contribute to this success, both fans and critics agree that it's Tiger's devastating mental game that has propelled him to become the premier golfer of our time. Now Tiger shares his thoughts on what he calls the game of a lifetime. He reveals the five secrets he believes are responsible for his success-a combination of physical, metaphysical, and psychological practices he uses daily to keep his game in top shape and help him to transcend all the ups and downs of golf. Best of all, Tiger reveals his unique approach to the game for the first time ever in this one singular volume.

Many of my friends are not skeet, trap, or target shooters, or do not shoot as much as they golf. So that these folks don't feel left out, this site is a must. Links are provided here (not golf courses but hypertext paths to web pages golfers who frequent links enjoy.) My golfing friends don't shoot trap (not sand pits but diverging clay targets traveling away from a shooter.) They shoot birdies instead of "birds". They yell "four" or "fore" instead of "pull" before they shoot. Come to think of it, I don't know how we even communicate with each other.

I remember when playing golf, at the "tee" or "tea", a golfer who was assigned to shoot with me and a golfer (and fellow shooter), who kept yelling at me when it was my turn, "open your face, open your face." I kept thinking "close your face!" We just don't talk to each other that way at the shooting range, when we are all holding shotguns. Sometimes I think shooters are just kinder and gentler than golfers. Nevertheless, from the stories golfers tell me, they seem to be under enormous stress.

So for stress relief to golfers, I hope this page leads you to some well deserved contentment and that you become more like Bob Hope was and less like Gerald Ford!
