Celebrating Veterans Day with 11 Rounds of Golf!
On October 11, 2011, Veterans Day, Mark Chapman completed 11 rounds of golf in one day. Chapman, a 42 year old veteran, served in the United States Air Force, and he is currently a student at the Golf Academy of America in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. He developed the 11 rounds in a day concept, as a way to support and benefit the Wounded Warrior Project and Salute Military Golf Association.
The Wounded Warrior Project is committed to helping injured military personnel when they return from combat. They offer various programs to help the wounded soldiers and their families adapt and cope with the return to civilian life.
The Salute Military Golf Association provides various forms of golf experiences to wounded veterans as a part of rehabilitation. This includes providing lessons and specialized equipment for the veterans as they enter a program.
After accepting the challenge and negotiating with the association to organize the event, he started a disciplined regimen that began with 300 balls on the driving range, then a round of 18 holes, followed up with another 100 balls on the range. This regimen was built around improving his consistency and endurance for the 11 round challenge.
Chapman is originally from Elba New York, and he retired from the Air Force in 2010 as an E7 Master Sergeant, who received the Defense Meritorious Service Medal. Specifically, he worked on national intelligence, and he served in Iraq from 2007 to 2008 and was involved in the US and NATO intervention in Kosovo in 1999. During his service, he traveled all over the world and was stationed in England, Germany, Japan, Korea, and Alaska.
After his retirement, he considered various options but ultimately decided to attend the Golf Academy of America in Myrtle Beach. The Golf Academy of America was founded in San Diego in 1974, that offers students a two year management degree that combines golf instruction and business management. The Golf Academy of America has locations in San Diego, Myrtle Beach, Phoenix, Orlando, and Dallas.
For Chapman to complete the 198 holes by sunset, he had to play the 18 holes at a pace of approximately 58 minutes per round. To accomplish this he only used a driver, 3-wood, 7-iron, two wedges, and a putter. He was also driving an E-Z-Go golf cart that can reach up to 28 miles per hour. He played on Waterway Hill’s Oaks Nine course. What a way to honor Veterans Day and support two great organizations!

A Review of the 2011 Myrtle Beach Golf Season
As we are approaching the end of another year, we find it relevant and valuable to look back over the past year and take note some what has happened with our business and in Myrtle Beach. We have greatly enjoyed supporting the Myrtle Beach Golf community, and we want to thank all of you golf fans for your continued support of our business. If you are still looking to end the year with a golf outing, give us a call today.
We started booking trips in the Fall of 1979, and 2012 will be our 34 th golf season here at the Seaside Golf Capital. We also recently added our 8th Golfmaster, GOLF TREK now has more than 125 years of combined beach golf experience from which you can draw course knowledge from.
In 2011, we added FOUR LARGE ACCOMMODATION PROPERTIES with two - 6 bedroom condos on South Ocean Blvd. in Myrtle Beach and two – 8 bedroom beach houses in North Myrtle with 3,900 sq. ft. of luxury. These are absolutely great properties and we are proud to offer them to you.
The Spring 2011 golf season was very strong especially in April and May. Golf package rounds booked were up 5 %. During the Summer, the Myrtle Beach area had 58 straight days of 100+ degree heat indexes and very little rainfall. In late August and early September, storms and hurricanes rolled up the east coast. The heavy rainfall changed our brown fairways to lush green for our Fall golfers. November is still a great month to enjoy golf in Myrtle Beach.
This past summer represents the 3rd Summer in a row of very high heat, humidity and low rainfall. If you are a cool weather grass like our BENT grass greens, it is a very harsh environment in which to survive. 7 courses gave up the good fight and changed their bent grass greens to either tif eagle, champions or mini verdi bermuda greens over this past summer. Courses making the change included Barefoot Fazio, Barefoot Norman, Lions Paw, Myrtle Beach National West, Pearl East, River Club, and Wild Wing Avocet.
We are enjoying the Fall, and looking forward to 2012. If you are looking to book a vacation for the end of the year, get in touch with us and let us help make your vacation a great memory to last for generations.
