Men on the Bag, The Caddies of Augusta National

I finally finished Men on the Bag, The Caddies of Augusta National written by Ward Clayton. If you’re a Master’s fan, you will enjoy reading about the forgotten caddies of Augusta National. The caddies of Augusta National are some of golf's most fascinating characters. They've worked for Presidents, many of the world's most powerful men, and every Masters champion until 1983 when the regular "Tour caddies" took most of their jobs. Their stories reveal a side of golf few have seen and all will enjoy. The book covers many topics including a peek into the life of the caddies (Stove Pipe, Burnt Biscuits, Cemetery, Iron Man, Pappy Stocks and many others), stories on how or why they received their pitcular nickname, Tiger Woods first caddie, description of the caddie shack, explains the history of the white jumpsuit, the transformation from Augusta National caddies to player tour caddies, the first woman caddie at Augusta National, the first white caddie at Augusta National and ending the book with a few pages on local Augusta natives and the most known Augusta Native and ‘golden’ boy, Charles Howell III. A short read (only 220 pages), it is a unique look at the ‘lost or forgotten’ history of the Augusta National caddies.
