Most likely you should take a more positive outlook to our hosts. Not all are as useless as many on Thai Visa paint them. Many Falang, on the other hand, have an unhealthy and usually totally unwarranted, superiority complex. PH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, if you walk you get a better deal (GV only as compulsory carts on StA) than the Thai all-in deal.

fulhamster Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 I suppose it's a bit of a climbdown by GV, at least they realise that most of their non Thai sports day players are resident expats and not tourists after all. But still 300 bt more than Thais. Anyone found out what outrageous price thay want to charge bona fide tourists ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last Thursday at Burapha,a caddie i have used for the last 4 games i have played there, asked me for a 500baht tip before i,d even had a practice putt......she will not be on my bag Thursday week. Yesterday at Greenwood i paid my caddie 500baht because she walked and done a good job. Driving a cart playing with your phone and giving totally inaccurate yardages and reads (not that i need either) does n, t even warrant 300baht in my book let alone 500baht.

A tip is usually offered as appreciation for good service, which is not always the case with some caddies 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
