I played a charity event at a private club and they were upset that I took the cart to the driving range. I was early and never had that issue before. So my tip – ask if one can take the cart to practice area!
In the mid 90's I was invited to play at the Newport CC in Newport RI. It was a tournament and they had a 4 man slot for the military members from the Naval War College. The Admiral invited me to be on this team. I was way out of my league here in the wallet department. I was a pretty good golfer and all the confidence a fighter pilot could put on display. After the round, I was in the bar and struck up a conversation with a "lady" who asked me what I thought about tearing down a house that was "distracting" on the 14th tee (not sure on the hole). I said "I'm sorry", but I cannot afford to buy a home much less tear it down. I asked her what she did to afford buying homes and having them removed…..she said "my sister and I are the heir to the Campbell Soup Corp". Without thinking….I asked her what she was worth. To my surprise, she said about $2 billion. I said in that case: you should buy me another beer. Good times.
please don't stop making those videos, they're some of my absolute favorites! 🔥🔥🔥
I'm a caddie at a local CC in NJ. I get a little sad if I don't get 100. Used to be 65 a bag back 6-7 years ago, it has moved towards 100 a bag for the past 2-3 years.
Love these private club videos!! I'm with you on tipping the caddy $100 having been an ex-caddy myself.
I've played at a few CC's; can't say I was impressed. Granted they weren't Three Jack National or Augusta-type elite clubs, but still pretty nice. My take away was it was a place for snobs to hang around with other snobs. Good for them…not good for me. Keep making the great content, Matt.
Love the country clubs videos. Learned a lot about different arrangements and facilities they offers
I have played several private clubs over the years.
Perhaps, if you have a family and you need to occupy them during the down times, then maybe.
However I have a dozen quality daily fee tracks within a 45 minute drive. I can rotate during the season. One course for the next several years would bore me out of my mind.
As far as tipping?? Think about how much 4 to 5 hours of your time is worth. Then tip accordingly. One thing not to do??? Do NOT get angry and throw a fit. This goes for everywhere but especially as a guest at a nice CC.
I do also offer to pay for things all day…even though I usually don't get taken up. I just make sure to get drinks for the group when I have the opportunity.
Also one last thing. If it's a caddy club, try to lighten your bag as much as possible. Take a sunday bag if you have one..
Remove your hat as you enter the building.
I heard you shouldn’t use the members mouth wash and q-Tips…😂
love these videos on your channel. THanks Mr. SG
I don’t mind when people are having a good time , however when you are going over the board and being obnoxious and loud and crazy 🤔🤔nobody wants to be around you. Especially when you can’t watch your language when I’m at the driving range with my 13-year-old and you just sliced it!
That’s all thank you
Great video Mr. Shortgame and you're pretty spot on! Being respectful to members, staff and building good relationships is most important in my book regardless of being a member or a guest. Growing up I was a caddie and a member underneath my dad for a private club in north jersey. I enjoyed everything about caddying, except that I would rather be playing. However, they had a celebrity scramble and I was excited when they asked me to hit celebrity shots and counted it towards their score. That was fun!
Always easier to ask forgiveness then permission.
Same for golf, construction or life for that matter.
As long as your not breaking something, hurting anyone or stealing something then go for it.
Snobs are snobs and they don't like you doing things they don't have the balls or nerve to do.
Matt keep up the great work and videos
Those dawgs and pops at the turn are tax-deductible as entertainment expenses. Dues paid with CC rack up nice airline miles.
Not gonna lie, if I ever got invited to a private golf club (never gonna happen, but still…), ya damn right I'm gonna get there early and take advantage of whatever amenities are available. Having a nice warming soak before a round? Absolutely!
Due to a great friend of mine, I play at a couple private clubs on a very consistent basis. This post is made before watching the vid and I'm curious how many 'rules' I'm breaking 🙂
So, this is something ive been guilty of in the past. I am a private member, with a big heart. Im also a part of a lot of forums and online golf related groups in my local area. One of the big no no's is inviting people from forums out to play the course. Sometimes, there are people that want to get a taste of the club courses around and I wanna give a helping hand, unfortunately, the head club pro was also in one of the groups and saw what I was trying to do. The next day, he approached me on the chipping green and politely told me to not do that as they want to be sure those that come to the course are known individuals, at least to those whom are already in the club. Sounds a bit pretentious, but I get it. You wanna maintain the clubs reputation and dont wanna have to be on any kind of damage control. Only invite friends, friends of friends or family to come play with you at your club.
I got yelled at for changing shoes in parking lot. And don’t forget to take your hat off in the clubhouse.
Country Club mooching is an art form! There’s a classic story at of the big 3 in ATL area… some old timer gamed and practiced at this club for years and years. Like, he was a fixture. Knew all the guys in the pro shop, bag drop, starter, a bunch of members, etc. He was there 4-5 days a week. Never officially made tee times or purchased anything in the pro shop. He’d always just be there practicing, chucking it up, and the starter would just work him in. Until one day… he invited a friend who showed up early… presents himself as “guest of Mr So-and-so”… They didn’t have his name on the tee sheet. They got to looking and dude is not and never was a member! The gig was up. The guest had no idea his buddy wasn’t a member! Awkward. LOL
I always put the tab on the Underhill's account. BTW, where are you finding these $10 buckets? Metro Atl is $16 and up!
I think what I’m going to do next time is to name drop. “ Hi there I’m with Matt 😃 “
Are the private club videos the most watched because all of these guys want to watch you shower? ha
