Caddy Time was founded by M. Brett Jaffee and David Rider after 40 years of friendship and a shared love of golf. Their passion turned into purpose after a December 2020 round with a caddie — the very first for both of them. The idea sparked instantly and Caddy Time was born.
They soon partnered with Bryan Rosenfarb, igniting what has become a full-scale effort to modernize the golfer–caddie connection. With backgrounds in hospitality, law, and tech, the team blends tradition with innovation for today’s game.

Equity Partner & Online Marketing Strategy Advisor
With 27 years of experience in full-stack web development and a deep focus on SEO and technical strategy, I bring both performance and precision to the table. My work goes beyond building websites—I'm driven by the data, user behavior, and competitive landscapes that power real results. Before becoming the guy behind the screen, I was the guy on the greens. I grew up playing golf across Central Virginia and Southern California and served as an Assistant Pro at Oakwood Country Club from 1992 to 1994.
