The Drop by The Caffeine Caddy
Welcome to The Drop by The Caffeine Caddy—a podcast brewed for golf nerds and caffeine junkies alike. One of us stripes it like a pro, the other thinks a “draw” is something you do with crayons. Together, we dive into Tour drama, gear talk, swing woes, and the kind of hot takes you’d expect from two guys over-caffeinated on cold brew. Grab your favorite mug and settle in for a blend of golf, coffee, and questionable advice.
