GC285X1 BW 11: I Got that Going for Me, Which is Nice (Traditional Cache) in California, United States created by GeoRedheads

This cache has been archived.

GeoRedheads: Sad day for GeoRedheads -- but it's time to archive the Caddyshack Series. It's been a lot of fun, but it's a lot of maintenance. One of the challenges of hiding caches near golf courses is that there are people hired to maintain the courses, who take a different view of little plastic containers hidden within 100' of their finely maintained landscape.

Opening the space up for other caches -- enjoy!

Geocache Description:

Welcome back to Bushwood Country Club, 11th Tee, Par 4, 370 Yards: Small cache @ Crow Canyon Country Club

...So I jump ship in Hong Kong and I make my way over to Tibet, and I get on as a looper at a course over in the Himalayas.
A looper?
A looper, you know, a caddy, a looper, a jock. So, I tell them I'm a pro jock, and who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama, himself. Twelfth son of the Lama. The flowing robes, the grace, bald... striking.
So, I'm on the first tee with him. I give him the driver. He hauls off and whacks one - big hitter, the Lama - long, into a ten-thousand foot crevasse, right at the base of this glacier.
Do you know what the Lama says? Gunga galunga... gunga, gunga-lagunga.
So we finish the eighteenth and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, "Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know." And he says, "Oh, uh, there won't be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness."

So I got that goin' for me, which is nice.

In honor of Caddyshack’s 30th Anniversary, we introduce the Bushwood Memorial Cache series, hidden near golf courses around the East Bay. Back in 1980, Caddyshack was an instant classic, insanely silly and sophomoric, but packed with star power comedians of the era, and dozens of classic one-liners that still get laughs today.

To join the Caddy Tournament, find any of the first 18 Bushwood caches. Solve the front 9 and back 9, in any order you choose, and collect invitations for the 19th hole Leaderboard payoff! It’s not going to be easy, there’s a lot of caches to find, but if you’re like me, you’ll be giggling the whole way.

This cache, when found will have a letter identifier (e.g. Z=3) which can be used later to find the tee for the 9th hole. Make sure to have your caddy write the letter down on your scorecard, and replace your divots when you’re done.

THIS CACHE IS NOT HIDDEN IN THE LANDSCAPING, AND THERE IS NO REASON TO DIG THROUGH ANY PLANT MATERIAL TO FIND IT. It is a small cache, in a highly muggle prone area, and contains log only. BYOP.
