Played 7 rounds at the following courses.

Caledonia ( Great as always!!)

True Blue (Great as always!!))

King's North ( Great layout and the "Gambler" hole was wild!)

Founder's Club ( AWESOME GREENS, and loved the layout, a MUST play)

Willbrook ( Great course in great condition)

DeBordieu   ( A private course. Pete Dye and his son desgined it, probably the best two finishing holes I've ever played)

World Tour -  ( PLEASE, PLEASE STAY AWAY. An absolute DOG track. It is probably worse than the worst Muni I have ever played on)

Staff at World Tour were nice, but the conditions were embarrasing. We were shocked at how bad it was...

Thanks for the heads up - good news on King's North and Willbrook as we'll be heading down in a few weeks and those are 2 of the courses on our schedule.  We are not playing True Blue or Caledonia this year but I agree with you, they are both always great courses.

Besides King's North and Willbrook, we're scheduled to play Legends Moorland, Lion's Eye, Tiger's Paw, and Leopards Chase, Tradition, and Wild Wing.

I had not heard of the DeBordieu course before, do you have to have a connection to get off there if it's a private course?

Yes, DeBordieu is a private course and our Pro knows one of their Pros, otherwise I hear it's impossible to get off on this course. Everytime we told a local we were playing DeBordieu they would look at us with a, "How did you get on there" look...

You will like Willbrook and King's North. You won't forget the "Gambler" hole.  Tradition is a good track, but I haven't played any of the others you mention. Depending on where you're staying, you will be driving a bit to get to Willbrook and Tradition if you're staying up in North Myrtle Beach so give yourself time with traffic in the morning.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 35, June 8. Before leaving for work this morning (yes, I'm posting this quite late relative to the practice), I spent 15 minutes practicing at home, into a net.  This time, it was primarily 9-iron (full swings), with some UW (full and half) and a few 6-iron.

      Day 73: just some mirror work today. Working on feels for being open and getting the front shoulder down.

      My Swing (GolfLug)

      By GolfLug · Posted

      I'm liking this. Finally getting down hands in front of my trail leg pocket consistently at A6 with much better clubhead position (relatively not as tipped out). I can really pressure the shaft through impact with good face control  from this position and stay in balance. Won my first one v one march 5&4 against a 4 hcp who routinely drives it 35-40 yards past me in the men's club match play . Frustrated him with some solid iron play and air tight putting.

      Day 279 6-8  Worked on low point control skills work tonight. will be doing this for a few weeks. Tonight was just trying figure out how to get low point forward.  No ball.

      Day 8 (Jun 8 26) - Stayed the drill but added two additional irons (7i, 8i and 9i) - using Divot Board and hard foam balls - focused on tempo and purposed pause at the top….noticing how open the club is marking the board when I try to kill it and how much more square (and better distance) when I focus on these keys.
