Caddie Nicknames

Many caddies have nicknames. I didn’t realize how many until I compiled this list. Sometimes you bring your nickname along with you, but mostly you are given one from one of your fellow caddies or a player. It may be descriptive, flattering, or derogatory. A few have more than one. See if you can guess what some of these nicknames represent.
