Some loops you never forget. Mark caddies at Whistling Straits — and he's got the stories to prove it. This week we're joined by the man behind CaddieTales, talking life on the bag at one of the most iconic courses in the game. Wild loops, what it takes to read those greens off Lake Michigan, the stuff that never makes the timeline, and the kind of insider advice that'll make your own caddie glad you walked up. Real golf, no filter, straight from the bag room. #tipyourcaddie #golfpodcast #whistlingstraits #caddielife #interview

Dillon Garcia went from running a pancake food truck to caddying at Cabot Citrus Farms — and two years later he's looping his way around the world, from Nova Scotia to New Zealand.

In this episode of the Tip Your Caddie Podcast, Doug sits down with Dillon (@dillongarcia) to talk about falling into resort caddying after a broken leg, what Cabot Citrus Farms is really like now that the old World Woods is unrecognizable, the caddie life at Cabot Cape Breton (Links vs. Cliffs), and why he's chasing summers in Nova Scotia and a full year at Tara Iti in New Zealand. Plus: caddie pet peeves, the best chirps in the yard, and the Last Call.

Matt Ginella has spent decades around the best courses in the world — and around the people carrying the bags at them. From Sports Illustrated to Golf Digest to Golf Channel's Round Trip, now founding Fire Pit Productions and serving as Chief Storyteller at Kemper Sports, Matt's the rare golf-media figure who treats caddies the way TYC treats them: as the people the game is actually built around.

In Episode 33, Dougie Buckets and Matt go deep on the loopers who shaped his career, the caddie academies giving kids a real path into the game, the philosophy of taking a caddy in a world that's increasingly built for carts, and the single best caddie call Matt has ever heard — on the 18th tee at St. Andrews, in the wind, with a re-tee already in the burn behind him. Plus: how Matt's son ended up with the name Bandon, why caddies make the best tour guides anywhere outside the ropes, and the white whale of golf media that Matt has agreed to help us land.
