A cool opportunity for my former caddie, by Bryson DeChambeau
Tim Tucker isnât caddying for me anymore, but heâs still plenty busy.
Timâs new company, LOOP Golf Transportation, provides first-class transportation to and from all three airports that service Bandon Dunes (three courses in GOLFâs new Top 100 in the World), allowing golfers a stress-free journey to utopia. No more hassling with rental cars. Simply hop on the bus and get the party started.
According to Tim, âWe want your trip to start when you land, not when you land, drive a few hours on the road and then finally get there.â The LOOP bus fleet gives golfers a dream-like start and finish to their trip with accommodations including live TV, bathrooms and a full bar. Plus, thereâs no need to worry about not reaching the destination safely since each driver in the fleet has over 10 years of experience.
With knowledge of the high-end clientele that makes the pilgrimage to the Oregon coast, Tucker and his partner knew there was a market for this type of travel.
Best of all? It wonât break your wallet. While the sticker price might be daunting (between $1,000 and $4,000, depending on the airport), when split between the eight people a bus can accommodate, that price comes down quickly. And, considering the amenities included, that price comes as a bargain.
âItâs as nice as any private jet Iâve ever been on,â Tim says. âItâs like getting a first-class ticket somewhere â but better.â
