Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Step1
Familiarize yourself with golf. Know the rules and terms of golf. Know where the green, the rough and fairway are. Know what a hole-in-one, albatross, eagle, birdie, par, bogey, double bogey and triple bogey mean. Being a caddy is more than just carrying bags, it's having a keen understanding and experience with the game and everything to do with it.
Step2
Practice replacing divots. Be able to tell the direction of the wind. Know without measuring the yardage of an area. Have an excellent eye for the ball and have the patience to search when necessary.
Step3
Play the game as often as you can and surround yourself with fellow golfers. As you know, practice makes perfect. Make sure you play at all the different courses in your area to get practice with different difficulty levels as well.
Step4
Find a course or person who need a caddy. Caddies are hired by golf courses, so call the courses in your area to find out how to apply for a caddy job. More professional golfers hire their own caddy, so check out Caddychicks and even sometimes Craigslist to see if anyone is hiring a personal caddy.
