I'll be playing this for the first time and I am super excited. I know this course is going to kick my butt but can't wait. I have one question for those who have gone before me, do they allow caddies? I have a friend who is getting into tournament play and he wanted to caddy for me. I told him it would be a great tournament to check out because I only hear great stories how well it's run. If someone could post if they are allowed that would be great. I don't want to tell him yes then have him forced to wait for me while I play my round. Thanks in advance!
Caddies are allowed and much needed. The challenge here is to carry your bag and walk up and down massive hills. Caddies are awesome. see you there
Caddies are allowed. It is an amateur major for purposes of the PDGA dress code rules. Stick around after your round is done. They give away lots of stuff playing silly CTP games.
I've only played 1 of my last 6 rounds there without a caddy. Definitely worth having one and definitely worth playing the tournament. It's really the only reason not to move up to open at any point.
Here's the first preview video from Joe Wander and Disc Golf Live. The best part is right around the 4-minute mark! :-D

Thanks for beating me to the post, Scott. And thanks for your support. It does get REALLY good there for 26 seconds or so.
Leaving late tonight for AM NATS!!! Can not wait to get there!
Leavin in the Morning for Nattys. Wish us luck, one of us IL guys will be up there for sure.
Leaving tomorrow morning at 11 a.m. to go get a butt load of steroids. Phil says he's pretty sure he can get me in since I did qualify. If not, I'll spot or something. No point in wasting good steroids. :o
