Caddying in the Rain: The Demands of Autumn Golf

As the autumn months arrive, poor weather becomes part of the game. For golfers, rain can be frustrating. For caddies, it adds an extra layer of responsibility.

In wet conditions, every detail matters:

• Keeping clubs and grips dry to ensure consistency and confidence over the ball
• Managing yardages when the ball travels shorter in cold, dense air
• Advising on shot selection when fairways and greens play softer

Rain does not just test the player. It tests the partnership. As a caddie, you must stay organised, focused, and composed so the player can swing with confidence, without worrying about wet grips or the lack of waterproofs.

At Caddy Clubhouse, we recognise that poor weather is part of the craft.

A great caddie prepares for it, adapts to it, and can make the difference between a shot saved and a shot lost.

Autumn brings new challenges but the best caddies see them as opportunities to prove their value.
