THE CADDIE <<

Here is a story missing in the volumes of books about golf and golfers. The golfer lives in the limelight, sees his name in lights, gets all the glory. But what do we hear about his right-hand man, the caddie? Everybody knows Tiger Woods, but could you name his caddie or even recognize him in a crowd?

In all of sports, the caddie occupies a unique position. He is a coach who doesn't have to stay on the sidelines, a water boy who doesn't have to wait for timeouts, a psychologist who doesn't have a couch, and a fan who doesn't have to buy a ticket.

In Bobby Reeve's case, he's also a bail bondsman, not to mention a savior who will attempt to help Bobby resurrect his game - and his life - in most unexpected ways. From a jail cell in Baton Rouge to the U.S. Open at Pebble Beach, the gifted but troubled golfer and his mysterious caddie travel a remarkable path to great courses and to redemption.

How can a washed-up, beer drinking, has-been professional golfer find his way from his down-and-out life back to the road to championship golf? Especially when he doesn't believe in himself any longer and doesn't even know that he wants to find his way out? It takes someone special to walk into his life, push him and pull him, guide him and build his dreams.

Find out how this virtual stranger, cool, calm, and focused, manages to create a new man. Enjoy the stops along the way, the details of real tournament golf, the life of a golfer and his caddie, and finally feel the joys and frustrations that build to the tension and heat of tournament play.....
