Caddie Tradition<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At Bandon Dunes we believe that the game of golf is best experienced by walking with a caddie - truly, golf as it was meant to be. When you use a caddie, you're helping preserve a tradition 500 years in the making and giving hundreds of people the opportunity to perform their trade.

As a walking-only golf resort, our goal is to enhance your experience through the utilization of caddies. Caddies come to Bandon Dunes with a variety of backgrounds and experiences. Some are professional caddies from other resorts, private clubs, and professional tours. Additionally, we are proud supporters of the Evans Scholarship program and many of our caddies are Evans Scholars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bag Considerations<\/h2>\n

During the round of golf, you will walk over six miles. Your golf bag should be a carry bag with a single or double strap and bag stand that does not exceed 25 lbs. Items in the golf bag should be the essentials for the round you are about to play. Our caddies recommend 14 clubs or less, 1 layering piece of clothing (rain gear if the forecast predicts), water bottle and 6 golf balls. All other items can be left in the room.<\/h4>\n

Assigning Caddies<\/div>

The Bandon Dunes way is to have your caddie stay with you for all scheduled rounds of your stay unless you choose to make a change. Our goal is for your experience to be enhanced by having a caddie and we welcome your feedback.

Caddie Payments<\/div>

All caddie fees are to be paid by the guest directly to the caddie. The caddie fee is $125 per bag, per round plus gratuity. If you feel that your caddie experience did not meet your expectations, please notify a caddie supervisor or one of our golf shop professionals.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\t

Double-Bag Caddies<\/div>

Our caddies are some of the most experienced in the industry. Our mission is to enhance your experience and we have found that our caddies improve the flow of the game for you and your friends when carrying two bags.

Group Caddies<\/div>

A group caddie works with all golfers in your group without carrying a bag. Different from a forecaddie, our group caddie works with your group rather than walking ahead. He or she will describe the best strategies on each hole for your game, assist with yardages, help around the greens, tending the flagstick and perform other duties required for your enjoyment during the round. The group caddie fee is based on the number of
\nplayers in your group.<\/p>\n

Four Golfers – $40 per player
\nThree Golfers – $50 per player
\nTwo Golfers – $60 per player<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\t
