Going Down South for a Month...Golf memberships? unlimited golf?

[wholeinwon]

I'm going to be traveling down to Myrtle Beach for about 3 weeks in Dec/Jan and am wondering if there are any courses that offer unlimited golf?

 

Or what the best deal would be to play golf cheap...

 

lodging is not an issue.

I really don't know much about it but I heard that you can get a membership for caledonia and true blue for a grand.

If you could make a few trips down there that would pay off pretty quick. Amazing courses too.

Those two are premier courses for sure. I would want to play as many as possible myself. Whatever you do, be sure to play Glen Dornach up near the state line (Little River). That is my favorite course in the area. For budget minded golf, look at Possum Trot and Waterway Hills. These are fantastic courses in N Myrtle. Possum Trot has a wonderful practice facility. I love their short game area, they have numerous greens in the 50-100 yard range. It is seperate from the main range and is just for wedge practice. I wish more courses had this. For some great golf, I mean great golf, play The Witch, Thistle Golf Club, and Glen Dornach. These are three of my all time favorites. The Thistle is a links style course and stands out in the area. The Witch is a b**** Challenging. Glen Dornach is just a must see. Several holes along the intercoastal waterway, lovely lay out, meticulously maintained, etc.. With over 100 area courses, a membership playing only a few would be a shame. Strap up your shoes and get out there. You could play a new course every day and not see 1/3 of them if staying for a month. Check the local paper sports section for deals. Also, go to Martins Golf and Tennis, HUGE stores and they have them in S and N Myrtle. Nicest golf shop I have ever seen. Sized more like a small Walmart. Everything you can imagine is sold there. Point is, at the front door they have a greens fee booth and they have info and such on the courses. You can book your tee time there and they often have discounted green fees on area courses. PM me if you want any other info. Happy to share of course.

I agree. With all those wonderful courses, I would hate to have to play the same track everyday.

Many, many courses offer discounts. It may take you a little more time and logistics to sort through them, but I think the variety alone is worth the costs.

There is a Myrtle Beach specific golf forum somewhere out there. You could go there and post your dates and hook your wagon to other people's trip deals as a [s]filler[/s], [s]single[/s] er, ONESOME.

You could also buy the [url="http://www.myrtlebeachvipcard.com/catDetail.cfm?loc=Myrtle%20Beach&category=Golf"]Myrtle Beach VIP card[/url], that has a bunch of discount deals. Also check out the Entertainment/Enjoy books, etc. etc. etc..

Sounds like fun!
