Every golfer eventually discovers something surprising: a heavy bag makes a long round feel even longer.

Old balls. Broken tees. Clubs carried "just in case." Weight accumulates quietly.

So do old resentments. Outgrown fears. Expectations that no longer fit.

You can't enjoy the walk while carrying everything you've ever collected. The wise golfer travels lighter — not because they own less, but because they need less.

Caddie's Advice: Before adding something new, ask what you're ready to set down.
