Sea Island Golf Club

Caddie information.

Helpful guide. Memorable game.

An age-old tradition, the caddie’s role has evolved over the years. Once a simple job of toting equipment, caddying at the world’s top courses and clubs now requires extensive training and expertise. An app can’t calculate the effect of wind, elevation changes, or texture of the grass. But a good caddie can. They can also help with club selection, where to hit the ball to set up your next move, and even act as a coach, strategist, course tour guide, and trusty companion who helps you shake off a bad shot. Our expert guides not only know the natural beauty and history of your surroundings, but more importantly, they know the distinct layouts and challenges of each golf course—which goes a long way in reducing your score. And having your best round ever.
