A three-month evaluation process sees potential caddies as young as six months old scouted on their friendliness and physical aptitude.
David ZaitzProtecting the rich diversity of flora and fauna across the 140,000-acre ranch is at “the heart of everything” at Silvies, Campbell says.
“We figured when we built it that we had the lowest carbon footprint of any modern course,” Campbell added.
Not all courses situated within flourishing natural settings are so fortunate – one Arizona club’s run-in with a squadron of pig-like creatures last year cost it upwards of $200,000 in damages.
The habitats of such animals are preserved by the Oregon Natural Desert Association, a nonprofit supported by tips from golfers to Silvies’ very-own goat caddies.
