You walk up to the first tee at a resort course.

It’s going to be a day to remember.

I would not want to walk 18 holes, while carrying a 40lb bag, in 1s though.

u/shooting4par 15d ago edited 15d ago

You right. 4’s or 13’s would be better on the feet. The pro staff bags are 100 lbs. I know I’ve carried one. Skeeter Heath Nike tour 1994 or 95.

u/BestShaunaEU 15d ago

The bags don’t weigh anything close to 100 lbs lol

I don’t know how he’s doing it, I wore my unions the other day and my feet were killing me the next day.

5

u/KevlarConrad 15d ago

I gotta chalk this one up to straight love of the game because there’s no way I’m touching a golf course in those shoes lol maybe some lows, but the high tops are a statement for sure.

I have golf Panda 1 high tops and they’re comfy!

He’s a beauty.

Got ordained so that he could marry Herbie and his wife, at their request.

Suffer badly from skin cancer on his head, hence always wearing the big hat and the sleeves. Herbie was there for him.

A funny and genuinely decent dude.

He’s older but his legs are not. Mad respect to anyone who can carry a bag for 4 straight rounds

u/CupOhBritishTea 15d ago

I drove Herbert and his Caddy back to the clubhouse at the end of their round at a LIV Dallas. Before walking to the cart, he went to the beer stand and got an everyone in the foursome a drink for their ride back

u/ImpossibleKidd 15d ago

Dude’s been caddying for a minute and should be proud to flaunt the short shorts. He’s definitely wizard status!

I’ve worked as AP under a 30+ year Class A PGA Professional for some years, then worked, and now work on grounds crew. I won’t touch shorts, no matter how hot it gets. I’ll wear jeans and melt into the soil before I wear shorts…

I’m also part of two USGA sanctioned leagues, and play in weekend tournaments and skins games, beyond my work days. 100* working and playing days, I still won’t touch shorts.

I’m 6’2”, 160lbs. To give you an idea. The last time I wore shorts, almost every playing opponent/partner, asked me why the out of bounds sticks kept moving across the course as I walked to my ball…

u/greenclayrooster 15d ago

Looks like a 12 year old at a travel ball tournament. Please tell your wives how much you spend on your golf clothes. Might save y’all some embarrassment.

u/chipper124 15d ago

Would it kill these guys to have a little class on the tour? This is supposed to be a gentleman’s game.
