    Breaking your caddy’s balls “You have to tell me that”. That is the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard. Of course he didn’t think YOU were going to hit it fat AF 50yds into the rocks. Props to you caddy for saying “I didn’t think it was in play”.

    Back in 2003 I was a senior in high school in Salt Lake City. The Korn Ferry Tour (back then I think it was called the Nationwide Tour) was in town. A handful of high school golf teams were invited to a clinic with some of the tour players. We had no idea who the players were, but we were stoked anyway. Turns out Bubba was on the of the pros. He and some other dude spent an hour just hitting balls off the first tee while we all gawked at their talent. We all know Bubba's incredible hook shot from the tress on the first playoff hole of the Masters, right? Well, I watched him do that first from that tee box. He was sending balls out over the left rough and they were ending up OB on the right with complete control. At one point he took the other pro's right handed driver, teed it up swinging left handed with the toe on the ground, and pumped it out 300+ (yes, altitude helps, but still). On top of his talent he was so fun and relatable. He answered a bunch of questions and even through some respectable shade back at the doofus kids who tried to get smart with their questions. I'll never forget the day I became a Bubba Watson fan back at Mick Riley in Murray, Utah in 2003.
    Edit - The tournament wasn’t at Mick Riley. Just the clinic.
