I live in the Northeast, NY to be exact, and it is getting close to the end of the golf season. My wife and I play golf together and we were talking about a possible get away or two over the winter to play golf. This would likely be for a long weekend so the length of travel time is important. We have gone to Florida and Bermuda in the past and enjoyed ourselves but I thought I would ask if anyone has other recommendations.

Thanks for your suggestions!

Myrtle Beach could be a cheap alternative - and you're there within 2 hrs flight, tons of cheap packages too - talk to EatDrinkSleepGolf member of this forum - he should be able to hook you up. Of course weather is not as solid as Florida, but if you time it right - you'll enjoy 70's in December or February...

How about Mexico? Has anyone golfed there in the winter? What did you think? Would you recommend any particular places. Thanks!

I recommend Myrtle Beach as well. Can't go wrong! There are over 100 courses inside the city. I really like the legends course, it's a scottish style. I think there is a pete dye course in the legends complex too. If I remember correctly there are three courses at the legends, all wonderful.

Yes, Moorland is a Dye course and there are 3 Legends courses at their complex: Moorland, Heathland and Parkland.

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By StuM · Posted

      The chatter in my brain is when the distance is between clubs since I am pretty weak at shortened backswings, etc. I try to simply decide if being long or short is the better outcome and choose my club based on that and simply not even try for the “real” distance.  For me a full normal swing is what I strive for.

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I saw this comment made in a golf article... "Most golfers stand over a 4- or 5-iron still negotiating with themselves. They think about how hard to swing, whether they have the right club, if they have the aim correct and more. It’s a lot to deal with and long irons punish the “half-in” golf swing." I am not sure the "most golfers" is correct regarding the bolded part. I can understand if there is a bunker, water, and/or OB that a lot of golfers would be fixated on that. I am not sure that leads to ending up more times there. Pending your level in golf, the variance is so large in outcomes, it could be just with in the expected outcomes. I can understand if have a big lake on the right side of the hole being one of the most terrifying shots for right-handed amateur golfers.  I am not sure many golfers are standing over the ball talking to themselves, "Ok, maybe I should step back and pull the 4-iron. Am I lined up right? Oh, the wind came up, should I swing harder? What am I going to have for dinner tonight, maybe steak. (Joking, somewhat 😛)" A question is that how much chatter do you get while standing over the ball. Are you questioning the everything about your golf shot?
