We first covered caddies in Episode 8. Three years, 80 episodes, and hundreds of H&B Expeditions later, it's time for an update.
In this episode, Connor & D.J. share how caddies generally work in Scotland, Ireland, and England, as well as new details to know ahead of your trip across the pond.
By the end, you'll have a clear understanding of what to expect, and why caddies are an essential part of your travel experience.

In this episode, Connor and D.J. explore the advantages and trade-offs of an October golf trip to Scotland, Ireland, or England.

There is a corner of England that most traveling golfers have never set foot in, and until Connor's recent trip, one H&B hadn't reached in years. The far southwest, from Devon to the cliffs of Cornwall, has quietly held some of the game's most rewarding links all along.
The west coast of Scotland is the Birthplace of The Open Championship and home to some of the most storied links in the game.
