    Golf Caddies Kilted To Boost Business

    Doing a search found Whose Your Caddy - a movie with a kilted character in 2007, and a mention that one of the caddies in the 2005 World Golf Championships was kilted.

    I know some of the rabble play golf kilted.

    What I'm wondering is would a caddy (they still have a few right??) make more money - get better tips - if he worked kilted ( assuming the powers allowed him).

    How about a kilted golf pro? Sure would make for easy referrals at least.

    Maybe I'm overly optimistic? Just seems like a great "gimmick" to improve sales.

    I would not expect kilted caddies to earn more $ for being kilted, unless they were tending to someone of Scottish/Irish/Celtic decent. I golf at a few places where the caddies, bag boys, etc. wear uniformed knickers and those caddies, etc. earn a fair bit extra. Those caddies are at some of the more exclusive clubs, though.

    Who cares. We need to get Alice Cooper in a kilt out there with Glen Cample.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
