Things Pinoy Golfers Like #4

Good-Looking Lady Caddy and/or Umbrella Girl

Pinoy Golfers are the most pampered and well-served players in the world. In the golf courses that I’ve seen and played in the United States and other ASEAN countries, most of their golf courses do not have any caddies, moreso, no umbrella girls. But in the Philippines, any golfer can enjoy both–a caddy and an umbrella girl.

The Philippine Army Golf Course has lady caddies and umbrella girls. The rest of the military golf courses in Metro Manila (Camp Aguinaldo, Philippine Navy, & Villamor Air Base Golf Course) have male caddies but they offer umbrella girls. In other “high-end” golf course outside Metro Manila, they have both lady caddies and umbrella girls (like Fontana/Clark Golf Course; Fairways & Bluewater Golf Club in Boracay; and others).

The Pinoy Golfer likes to play with a lady caddy and an umbrella girl. Not only that, they want a good-looking lady caddy and/or an umbrella girl. It is my personal observation that the “looks” of the lady caddy/an umbrella girl has a direct connection with the result of my golf game. If I have good-looking caddy/umbrella, I have a better rythym and a better score. It had been tested and I proved it to be true! I usually call this “Jovie’s Theory” in playing golf.

Visualize this, what is your temperament if your caddy is ugly? Of course, your concentration and focus to your game are affected and it will lead to your worst round of golf. You are not relaxed and comfortable because you are mad why in a hell that Caddy Master gave you an ugly one! In golf, you must be cool, relaxed and your body muscles are loose. The main opponent in golf is yourself! So, if you are mad and “hot-tempered” because you don’t like the face of your caddy or umbrella girl, be ready to lose with your bet or re-negotiate with your golfmates on your bet.

On the opposite situation, if my caddy and umbrella girl are “good-looking”, I am 100% sure that I have a nice game and sometimes win some money for an “extra tip” for them. 

In one instance, I heard an old golfer complaining to the Caddy Master why he was given a “not so good-looking & chubby” lady caddy. The old golfer said to the Caddy Master that he does not want that “as if his wife is guarding him all the time up to the golf course and telling him what to do!”. The old golfer had a valid reason and he got the youngest and most beautiful among the lady caddies. After 18 holes, I lost Five Hundred Pesos in my game to this old golfer!  

Whenever I play golf at the Philippine Army Golf Course, the Caddy Master always provide me with the best-looking available caddy and umbrella girl. This gives me the pleasure to play more concentrated and focused on my golf swing and more positive ball strikes with my golf club. Having a “good-looking lady caddy & umbrella girl” will also be a source of envy from your golfmates in a “golf flight” and this will distract the concentration of your opponents to the game of golf.

My advice? Get the Best and you will end up as the Best Player!
