A real Tour caddie in your ear on every shot. Ask for the play. Prefer another club or shot? Talk it through, then commit. Tour players have a caddie to read the hole, pick the club and keep them out of trouble. Most golfers don't, and that's where shots go: not to bad swings, but to bad decisions. We believe every golfer deserves the caddie advantage. REAL TOUR CADDIES. REAL VOICE. Our caddies have worked at the highest level of the game, on the PGA Tour, the DP World Tour and beyond. Their knowledge shapes every play you get, delivered in their real voice, in real time. Built with 12 Tour caddies, including Steve Williams, John Ellis, Shay Knight, Matt Minister, Travis Perkins and Mark Carens. Between them, they were on the bag for: • 18 Major Championship wins • 230 Tour wins • 20 Ryder Cups • 6 World No. 1 players A REAL CONVERSATION Your caddie reads the situation: the distance, what's in play, the conditions, your clubs and your game. Then you get the right play for that moment. Sometimes safe, sometimes bold, never by default: • The right club • Where to aim, with a target you can see • Where you can afford to miss Have a different shot in mind? Just say so, and your caddie talks it through with you. Not sure of a ruling? Ask, and the answer comes from the official Rules of Golf. HANDS FREE. EYES ON THE SHOT. Just talk. No typing, no menus. Rather not talk out loud? Double tap for instant advice, no talking needed. Either way, your caddie answers by voice, so your focus stays on the shot. GoCaddie works fully on iPhone. With Apple Watch, your caddie and the course map are right on your wrist. THE CADDIE COMMUNITY Your caddies are with you beyond the round too: • The warm up routines they've seen on Tour • How they think about mindset and pressure • How the best players prepare 40,000+ COURSES WORLDWIDE Play anywhere. GoCaddie works on over 40,000 courses. FOR THE PLAYER WHO CARES ABOUT EVERY SHOT. You deserve a caddie who does too.
