I love the team sport of pro golf. It IS an advantage to have a caddie but your equally as intitled to grab a caddy yourself? I don't think there should ever be different sets of rules for the average player and the pro player. They might do that for Equipment and that would be bad in my opinion.

The caddy is still not giving you much more information than is already available from the course... Moral Support maybe..? "SKYcaddie" is officially allowed in USGA sanctioned events and official rounds. and you can lay a club down on the ground for alignment and then remove it before you take your stroke.

I agree if you take the caddies away, play would slow. more than the already 5.5 hour average round!!! ... who knows if all those guys can even read.
