Caddy for a Cure

I wanted to help get the word out about a great golf related charity called Caddy for a Cure. Their mission, according to the website:

The mission of Caddy For A Cure, Inc. is to generate charitable funds for designated organizations while offering the opportunity to be “inside the ropes” as a caddy for a PGA TOUR player at a PGA TOUR event. We offer a one-of-a-kind professional sports fantasy while contributing to genetic disease research and education and other worthy causes and individuals.

“One of a kind” is right on. I know I’ve caught myself thinking how much I’d pay for the chance to caddy for a PGA Tour pro. Now is your chance to do it.

There are several opportunities to win an auction for the chance to caddy for a PGA Tour pro during a practice round throughout the 2008 season. Click here for the 2008 schedule.

The next event up for auction is the Verizon Heritage. Auctions are being conducted on CharityBuzz.com. You can bid for a chance to caddy for Boo Weekly, Justin Leonard, or Woody Austin during a practice round.

As if that wasn’t enough, the package includes a three-day, two-night golf vacation package at the Torreon Resort in Arizona and a package of incredible golf merchandise. The vacation and golf merchandise alone are worth well over $2000.

To top it off, for this event, Caddy for a Cure is partnering with the Wounded Warrior Project, one of my personal favorite charitable organizations.

I hope you will consider participating in the auctions to raise some much-needed money for some great charities.

If the caddy package auctions are out of your price range, you can still make a smaller donation at the Caddy for a Cure website. Even if you can’t afford to donate right now, please spread the word to every golfer you know. Let’s show how charitable the golf community can be.

Once again, you can click here for the auctions at CharityBuzz.com or click here for the Caddy for a Cure website.

    This is a wonderful project and while there are many golf related charity projects this one is definitely one of a kind. Imagine getting the chance to be with a professional through his complete practice round and see how the mind of a professional works. Of course there is the added bonus of walking a famous course during an official PGA Tour event which is fantastic in itself. To top it off, the fact that you are doing it for a good cause just makes the whole experience all the more satisfactory.

    A word appreciation must also be reserved for some of these pro’s who have come forward to be a part of this event. A lead up to a tournament is always important for these guys and when they can give a little bit for a good cause it must always be applauded. One does hope that there will be good participation and this project turns out to be a success.

  • Well, it’s not really that bad. But, I thought I should cover buried lies if I’m going to stick with the beach week theme.

    The good news is, the changes you need to make to play a buried lie are small and pretty simple. The bad news is, the more the ball is buried, the less you should be concerned with getting up and down and the more you should be concerned with just getting on the green.
