Been getting some quotes on various packages, one that seemed to have a decent price was for a round at the following 4 courses.  Can anyone with first hand experience give me a quick review?

Indigo Creek
Pearl West
Pearl East


International Club
TM R7 SuperQuad - 9.5* Stiff || TM V-Steel 15/18* Stiff || Mizuno MP-52 3-PW PX5.5 || Titleist Vokey OC 52/58* || Odyssey White Hot #1

The two Pearl Courses are pretty good. I haven't played the other two, but from everything I've read and reviews of friends who have played them they are not anywhere near the top courses in Myrtle Beach. There are seevral threads here about MB courses. The best "bang for the buck is to get a package from the legends group. They have 5 courses to choose from and include breakfast, lunch and two beers. All 5 of their courses are very good and the green fees are quite reasonable. For rveiews of MB golf courses check out Myrtle Beach Golf Talk at this link. http://www.myrtlebeachgolftalk.com/tabid/111/aff/3/Default.aspx Then get a quote from Brian Noblin who runs that site.

I played the International club last year. i won't be in any hurry to go back. if was fine and you will not have a bad round but it is pretty much uninspiring...the only i remember about it is 3 putting on 17 and 18 to shoot an 80...WTF.

there are many better options if you keep looking.

Driver- Callaway Razor somthing or other
3W- Taylor Made R11S
3H Rocketballz
4I-PW- MP-59
Gap- Vokey 54

Lob- Cleveland 60

Putter- Rife

I just booked a package for Master's weekend....

We are playing:

April 7 : Carolina National (27 Holes)

April 8 : The Pearl West & East

April 9 : Rivers Edge

81 holes in 3 days!

Packaged with a condo at Oyster Bay, worked out to $280 per person, for four of us.  I thought this was a hell of a deal.  Let me know if you would like me to refer you to the package company.

I'll take you up on the offer to share the company you got that package from, please.  I'm planning a fall trip with a friend.  Would it be more expensive in the fall (Sept or Oct) than the spring in MB?  Just curious.  Thanks for sharing and have a great trip in April.

^ Sure thing.  I worked with Jordan @ Fore-Travel.  www.fore-travel.com  She was a great help to us in answering questions and making sure we got the most for our money.  I would heartily reccommend using her to book your trip.  To be fair, another good person to use is Brian Noblin at www.golfdesk.com   There are plenty of other packagers out there, but I would definitely start with Jordan or Brian.  If they can't do it, no one can.

As for trip timing, Mid March thru Early May and Mid Sept. thru October are the peak seasons for MB golf.  Peak meaning most expensive, however you will be rewarded with the best conditions.  September is on the fence.  Early Sept. is more summer like, so it is cheaper, but you'll still deal with 90 degree days.  Late Setember is better weather wise, but starts to become more expensive.  I believe over all, the spring is most expensive.

Outside of timing, it obviously depends on the package you choose.... courses, lodging, meals, etc all can drastically change the pricing regardless of the time you actually go.

To start exploring, go check out www.golfholiday.com  This will give you a taste.  I love MB, I lived there for a few years and got to know it well.  Let me know if I can help anymore!

Thanks, SeaWolf.  Much appreciated.  I tried to relocate our family down to MB in 2003.  That didn't work out.  Long story........

      LIV moving to 72 holes is a subtle admission that 54 holes was nothing but a joke all along.

      Is This Club Blatantly Sandbagging?

      By imsys0042 ·

      I was going to start a thread, but this seems like the place.  Yesterday I played my matchplay match at my local club.  My opponent is a notorious sandbagger by reputation.  The pro once pulled his tournament rounds from the past several years and said that it is impossible his tournament rounds are legit based on his handicap. here is what happened last night.  I am getting 4 shots from him.  His current handicap index is 15.3 i shot 45 on the front.   Was down 4 after nine, he had three birdies and shot even par. I was closed out on thirteen, we halved with a bogey.  That bogey put him one over par for his round.   He then took a triple on 14 and then left. As if that wasn’t bad enough, he lied about his score.   I wrote down on my scorecard what the score was.  He put higher values that didn’t affect the outcome of the match to pad his score and apparently make it not look as obvious.   He shot 36 on the front, but claimed 40.  The higher values for his score were in the online scoring app our club uses.  He did it this way: I won #7. He had a 2 foot putt for par that if he made would still lose the hole.   He picked up and said it didn’t matter since I won.  He took a 5 instead of a 4 after picking up a gimme. on #8 his approach shot on this par 4 was 8 inches.  I verbally conceded the putt but I had hit into a hazard.  I finished the hole with a 6.  Instead of birdie he put in for par. on #9, another par 4, his approach was to 18 inches.  I missed my par putt and then knowing how close I verbally conceded the putt.  I missed my bogey putt, he never conceded mine.  Instead of birdie he put down a bogey. He padded his score by 4 shots on the front.  And then did again on 10.  I rinsed one and made 6 on a par 4.  I putted out and he was fishing balls out of the lake so I drove off to the next tee.  He had 15 feet laying two but claimed a 5.     love to know the odds of a 15 handicap being even thru 12 holes on a round of golf.

      They've been chuckling since they hooked the shark. I think Greg doesn't realize the jokes on him.
