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.

    • Flying into ATL on Sept 11 (Thu), early, leaving Sept 15 (Mon), late. Dates are fixed. Trying to hit the best RTJ Trail stops without spending half the trip in the car.   Plan: Thu: Grand National (Lake or Links) Fri: GN AM, then drive to Capitol Hill, play Senator Sat: Capitol Hill – Judge Sun: Ross Bridge Mon: Oxmoor Ridge early, drive to ATL   Thinking about squeezing in Cambrian Ridge after Capitol Hill—worth it or too much? Would love any feedback or tips from those who’ve done it.
    • Day 73 (13 Jul 25) (note: forgot to post the "day" for the past few days, up to day 73) - Easy day in the backyard, with time on the 50deg wedge and the mat (simulating tight lies around the green) working on low spinners.  Love using this mat as it is small and portable but also lends to being a type of alignment rod to get a proper setup.  Finished up with a few swings with the 54.  
    • Congrats on the new leg of your journey - the challenge of learning something new while dealing with Parkinson’s is totally awesome.
    • Played several holes today with my Buddy's left haded clubs.  I was going to order just woods, but after playing again today and hitting the irons well, I will be ordering a complet set of Left handed Clubs.    They are Callaway Edge, Regular flex.  I am excited !  Will let you know after I try them and let you know how well they performed.    Retired Old Man, Terry
    • Depends in part on what lie the greens crew left me. If it's first cut of rough or fairway and clear shot to cup, it's an 8i chip and run. If it's shaggy, or I have to go over ridge or bunker, it's a cut shot with a 58* LW.
