The Doug Episode

Author: Golf Swing Productions by Mark Crossfield Greg Chalmers and Lou Stagner December 5, 2024 Duration: 36:17

Is this the most anticipated guest in the history of the podcast? In today's episode, we're joined by Doug, Greg's caddie. Lou has been openly candidating for Doug's job, so in this episode, the guys get Doug's story on how he got into caddying, some of the not-Greg players for whom he's caddied, and what it's been like working with Greg this past season. The episode is capped with a high stakes quiz: Greg puts some caddie questions to Lou and Doug, and the winner gets Greg's bag for next season!
