What does a back shop employee do at a Golf Course?

Question

Just curious because my really good friend plays at a private golf course because he became a sponsored member there when he was 12, i didn't really get to be a decent player until this year, and it's $45,000 to get in otherwise (i'm 16). He told me to just get a job as a back shop employee, which im good with, but what would that involve me doing exactly?

Answer 1

I was a back shop employee when I was in high school. You'll be cleaning the members clubs. You'll be loading the members clubs on a cart prior to their arrival so they are ready to go when they do get there. You might be buffing the members shoes. But, because you're an employee you will get to play the course on Mondays only. That's typically the day the private courses are the least busy. Probably doesn't sound like much fun now, does it?

Answer 2

I have done it for 7 years its cleaning golf carts helping customers ''TIPS ARE NICE" And picking up range balls.
Some other minor duties as well. I recommend trying at a nice public course easy job your the perfect age man go for it.
Try part time with another job because even though the free golf is nice a backshop- outside service employee has no future
in the buisness of golf.

Answer 3

The easiest way to learn golf like a pro is by following "The Simple Golf Swing" program. It's primarily a 31 page eBook that teaches golfers how to make solid contact with the ball, how to avoid hitting fat, how to avoid slicing, how get more power, accuracy, and consistency in your swing. Consistency being the number 1 golf skill.

You not only get the eBook though, you also receive a ton of extra material including video, lessons on putting, driving, chipping, sand play etc. Here is their official site: http://www.golfswingguru.net

Answer 4

considering that many centers paintings 40 hours as an entire time activity, it would seem that the city golf direction is making an attempt to conquer the gadget. i might evaluate 37 hours as an entire time worker.

Answer 5

I have worked as a Backshop employee for a while now and it is nothing like the previous answers have stated. I mostly drive gold carts from the maintenance shed, to the clubhouse, and back. I do occasionally clean clubs and do bathroom checks, but that is just a small part part of a very good job. I strongly recommend to anyone the job of Backshop.

Answer 6

Yes...watch the movie Caddyshack and pay attention to what the character of 'Porterhouse' does.....you'll clean clubs, shine shoes, replace spikes....basically you'll get paid very little money to take care of the dirty work that no one else wants to do!

Have Fun!!!

Answer 7

Usually those are the people that put clubs together, they do regripping, they might do some sort of maintenance on the golf carts.
