Yea, and too bad he's p!ssed most of that away at the tables. Not saying that it's not easy to fall into that sort of lifestyle. Some people just need to take a look in the mirror and realize what they got going for them.

[patweisers44 872]

Daly has made $9,082,342 on the tour, but countless other millions in endorsements

and probabaly lost 5 times that amount in casinos. not to mention he prolly spent a couple mil at hooters before they decided to sponsor him.

Must only have stats from 2004.

 

point is, it's a nice living if you can get it.

[Cruzer 1,996]

absolutely, those guys have it made so easy it's sickening. now, that being said - i don't think most have any idea just how good tour players are - even those at the 125 mark. there are tons of guys on mini-tours and locally that can flat out light it up, but couldn't sniff a cut on tour. i can't imagine there being a better job than a touring pro.

Oh, I don't think it's easy. I know how hard it is to shoot 100. I have no idea what it would be like to make the cut, forget actually winning a tournament.

 

I just can't think of a better job. Just show up for the tournaments Tiger isn't at and try your best.

 

Steve Williams has the best job ever. He doesn't have to train, practice, nothing. He just has to follow Tiger around and carry his clubs. Sh1t, some people would do that for FREE!

Yeah, and they are all mostly worried about the new drug testing. Some aren't so much. But some are b!tchin up a storm. Are they testing for performance enhancers only?, cuz I know more than a few of those guys hit the spliff.

 

Will be interestin...

it's focking GOLF!!!!!!!!!!! Jesus Christ.

 

out of all the people i golf with, I'm one of the few people that doesn't drink and or herb while golfing. It gives you no advantage. jesus.

Steve Williams is one of the best caddies in the world. If you think seriously all he does is follow Tiger and carry his clubs you are sadly mistaken. What about the countless hours he spends on each and every course Tiger plays on to find all the distances, slopes of fairways, greens, the different rough lengths. Ever notice the little book that the caddies pull out when a golfer is asking them a question, every little thing the caddie has ever seen, every break, every sprinkler head is listed in that book. They get a ton of money from the golfer, but don't ever think they don't have a full time job and are part of the reason the golfer makes a great shot, wins a tournament, etc.

 

Yes I would probably do that job for chicken feed, just to be around the game that much, but most people don't realize how much work there really is to being a pro caddie.

Yeah, my point is it will interesting to see what comes in on their new drug testing. Like I said, they are hitting the spliff, now they can't, but some will.

Who said it gives someone an advantage, in this thread anyway?

If Steve Williams caddied for you, how much money would he make?

[potts17 4]

Probably more than he would make if he caddied for you shooting your 100 on the course.

 

Just sayin' it's not a cake job like you make it out to be.

ill take a young play like sam querrey in tennis over this young guy any day...

Club selection isn't why I struggle to break 100.

 

On a real course mind you.

 

Caddying isn't cake? tell me a person alive that isn't rich, that wouldn't switch places with Steve Williams?

Ghey room somewhere else

Ghey room somewhere else

 

 

the fact that you read that and had gay thoughts tells me that you know where the gay room is

 

caddying would be a nice way to get tan....carry a book on the course...the bag...try not to fart when he shoots...youre all set...

now go get your golfer's tan carryin a bag...

not even close....edjr just helped proved that yet again.....

[edjr 7,012]

I don't think it is. Not that I wanted to have this argument.

 

The money is so outrageous, no one has the urge to bust their asses trying to win like a Vijay Singh or a Tiger. Christ, you can make the cut and it's enough to make a comfortable living. 30 years ago, you had to do very well to make any money, now it's a joke.

[Sho Nuff 720]

Proved it?

How...because of the career winnings of the guy who was 115th on the money list last year?

[edjr 7,012]

Agreed...Bmoney's trying to say you proved his point.

All you did was prove that there is alot of money out there on tour.

The guy made 16 cuts of the 26 tourneys he played last year...4 top 25 finishes (2 top 10)...3rd once...and made 888,000

Yep, and we are the fools paying $2 a ball, $200 an iron, $300 a putter, $400 a driver. Feeding into it.

 

Same thing in baseball. they make way too much money for me to pay $10 a beer. Now the owners shouldn't make all the $$$, but give the fans some change. I don't go.

 

Football, they earn it, pay them more.

he 'worked' 26 weeks out of the year and 10 of those weeks he only played 2 days. What a life.

 

yes I realize he practices, but I don't know if I consider that work, or any of it as a matter of fact.

Yeah...well that was just on tour.

Not sure what else some of them do.

But that is why there are only so many guys that can do it.

Because who the hell wouldn't want to if they could?

[swirvenirvin 25]

Guys lose their tour cards all the time, and guys like Daly play on Sponsorships from the tournament

[edjr 7,012]

They do lose their cards. only the top 125 get their card next year.

 

As sho nuff said, kooch came in 115th.

[Sho Nuff 720]

Last year he did.

He played on the nationwide tour in 2006...and I think was close to the top on the money list on that.

[Riddlen 1]

I shoot like 50 on 9 without ever playing so a few more years of practice :fingersrossed:

all the time he spends looking for his ball is considered work....

 

he is better than average Joe hacker who thinks a $300 driver will make him Tiger...

 

thats why average joe hacker thinks that golfers are better...

 

but good for this guy...

[edjr 7,012]

that's not a "real" course though. most 9 hole courses are decent, but they're 9 holes, they don't have the room to be that good.

 

I am not trying to downplay you shooting 50, but if you play on a real 18 hole course with real rules and with all the hazards, shooting 100 is very hard.

 

One thing people always forget is most people don't play by the real rules of golf. hitting it out of bounds on your drive, you don't get to place it on a nice patch of grass "around" where you think it went in the woods lying 2. Sorry, them's aren't the real rules, if you want a real handicap.

Yeah...cause no average joe focknut ever spends money on a nice tennis racket...good shoes...some butt ugly white shorts (or the old nike denim aggasi shorts I used to see people wearing).

people spend hundreds on running sneakers. fock if I know why.

 

You have to admit though, other than hockey, golf is by far the most expensive sport. People are willing to spend a lot of money on a lot of various things to get better or to think they are getting better. Lessons alone can cost you hundreds, thousands.

I would love to be a CEO of a major corp but it's not going to happen because I don't have whatever "talent" that they supposedly have. And then get a $10 + million buyout when I suck at it.

 

Golfers "work" a minimum of 4 days when they don't make the cut (practice day, pro am). If they make the cut, it's a 6 day week. 1 day off for travel and start the whole thing over again.

 

These guys have a special talent that allows them to make a lot of money working at a job they love. Why the hate/jealosy or whatever the bad vibe is?

Riddlen doesnt shoot anywhere around 50
