In this episode, Mark and his fellow looper Nick dive into the wild ups and downs of life as a caddie. They reminisce about some of the most unbelievable rounds—including an epic, under-par performance fueled by more than a few drinks—and reflect on the magic of golf memories and community.

But it isn’t all hole-in-ones and legendary walks. The heart of this episode is a raw, honest, and often hilarious look at caddie screw-ups: egregious misreads, handing out the wrong clubs, losing headcovers, and even narrowly avoiding senior citizen brawls over questionable gimme putts. Mark and Nick don’t hold back, sharing stories from their early days and lessons learned on the job, highlighting the importance of humility, growth, and the ability to laugh at yourself.

Whether you’re a seasoned golfer, a caddie, or just tuning in for the stories, this episode is packed with laughs, confessions, and a reminder that, no matter how bad the round (or the weather), there’s always another shot and another chance for a great story.
