What The Sessions Look Like
For 18 days, our veterans will embark on a journey together that will change their lives forever. For some, having the break away from their real life struggles will be a total recharge. For others, having to set goals each day or week will help them get that personal drive they need to know that once home, they can do anything in life they want. Regardless of what each veteran is hoping to get out of their time in Bandon, we know this will be a healing experience that will live with them forever.
Each veteran has their own story, their own struggles and the want to move forward in life. Our session is designed to not only help these veterans learn how to be a successful caddie, but to also find whatever form of peace they are looking for.
The veterans will live together in a beautiful new home that is minutes from the beach and the resort where they can bond and build a brotherhood through their individual stories and experiences.
They will spend their time training on three courses: Bandon Crossings, Bandon Trails and Old Mac. Each week we will set goals for them to accomplish. By the end of each week, they will know the ins and outs of each course. Where to aim or where not to aim. How putts break and how they won’t. Once the session is complete, each veteran will leave having the experience and knowledge needed to find work as a caddie and be successful at it.
As the session goes on, they will also get to enjoy some fun golf experiences with the group. Each veteran will have the opportunity to play each of Bandon Dunes World Famous courses. All of which are in Golf Digest’s America’s Top 100 Golf Course list.
Our hope is that by the end of their time in Bandon, each of our veterans are able to find some purpose and healing through golf and caddying. It will be a jam packed experience but one they will never forget.
We encourage you to follow along on their journey via our social media channels which are hyperlinked below.
