Blue Monster Golf Course to Feature Inclusive Caddie Service
Miami, FL (PRWEB) May 4, 2008 -- Doral Golf Resort & Spa, A Marriott Resort in Miami, Florida, one of the world's premier golf destinations, is offering any round of golf purchased on the famed Blue Monster, one of Doral's five Championship golf courses, will feature an inclusive caddie service. With this new program, available until May 20, 2008, a forecaddie will be assigned to each foursome, providing golfers with an expert guide to one of the game's great golf experiences.
Doral, which introduced an optional resort caddie program in 2006, is making the Blue Course "caddie inclusive" in an effort to further enhance the already world class experience for golfers playing on the famed Doral golf course, which is home to the CA Championship, a World Golf Championship event, and site of the longest running PGA TOUR event in Florida.
As part of the Blue Monster's "caddie inclusive" program, each foursome of golf will receive one forecaddie that is trained on every aspect of the course, including history, layout, course conditions, distances and even the many legendary stories that have become synonymous with the Blue Monster among both professional and celebrity golfers since 1962.
"We decided to make the Blue Monster caddie inclusive because we want golfers to experience the history and tradition of the course, from strategic shot making to entertaining stories that have been passed on over the years," said Darrin Helfrick, General Manager of Golf at the Miami golf resort. "This is truly one of the game's treasured courses, and this caddie program will enhance the overall golfing experience, while making history come to life."
Doral's overall resort caddie program, which is managed and maintained by CADDIEMASTER, the leading provider of caddie services, based in Pinehurst, N.C., features two options: the full service caddie and the forecaddie. The full service caddie option provides golfers with the ultimate caddie experience and will include carrying bags, offering shot selection advice, raking bunkers, spotting wayward shots, reading greens, tending pins, cleaning balls and getting yardage. For golfers that prefer to ride, the forecaddie service provides all of the above mentioned services with the exception of carrying bags.
