The Color-Sensitive Cones. In 1965 came experimental confirmation of a long expected result - there are three types of color-sensitive cones in the retina of the human eye, corresponding roughly to red, green, and blue sensitive detectors.
Most PGA Tour caddies make between $1000 and $1500 per week, but they also make a percentage of what the player wins in the tournaments. This usually equates to 5 percent of any finish outside the top 10. Players breaking into the top 10, but not winning, will share 7 percent of their prize with their caddies.

They work for a player, not the PGA Tour, surviving on a 5-10% cut of their playersâ winnings to earn a living. The Tour does subsidize caddiesâ healthcare by giving $2,000 to each caddie who works at least 15 tournaments a year, yet for many that stipend is not enough. Caddies who work for less established players have long been known to carpool to tournaments, share low-cost hotel rooms, and eat cheaply.
