When packing for your summer  Myrtle Beach Golf Vacation take a moment to consider the weather.  Sometimes it’s hot, sometimes it’s less hot.  Just like any place on the planet earth Myrtle Beach does have  some weather issues but here are a few  weather situations  you will not have to deal with in Myrtle Beach:  a frozen gas line, 2 feet of snow , actually no snow, frozen ice on your car windows, black ice on the road, large pot holes hiding under  ice and snow,  freezing rain, sleet, blinding snow, ice storms, putting on 4 layers of clothes just to go to the store,  shoveling your porch so you can get out of the house, the city plow filling in the opening to your drive way, and no wet dirty boots from all the snow and cinders.  So when your out there golfing in that 90 degree weather just take a moment and think back to January , then finish off that ice cold beer, birdie 18 and head for a cool dip in the ocean!

Tip for hot weather golf: Get one of those small bottle water sprayers, Walmart travel bin section, put it  on mist and spray away.  I do this just before we take off in the cart to maximize the cooling effect.

Golf Nuts, check out the below article we just received.  Not sure if this is true or not…but it makes for a good story.  This allegedly did not happen at a course in the Myrtle Beach area, however it makes one think twice before searching around in the woods too long.

Here is an excerp.

A startling discovery on a local golf course in Upstate SC on Monday. While searching for golf balls, a weekly endeavor a man thought  he had stepped on a rotten fallen tree limb. “it kinda smushed under my boot and I didn’t think much of it, til it began to move.” The huge reptile revealed itself from beneath the ground cover yielding an Eastern Diamond Back Rattler that is believed to be the largest of its kind ever discovered in the United States . Weighing in at a 97 lbs and 9 feet, 1 inch - it is the biggest rattler found since Ross Allen captured one in 1969 that measured 9 feet, 1 inch but only weighed 76 lbs. Beau is awaiting the final results on his record setting capture from the South Carolina Game Wardens office. The Game Wardens office spent some time Monday afternoon surveying the area with moderate concern for the existence of additional Diamond Backs of this size. “A bite sustained from a snake of this size could be fatal due to the large amount of venom this animal produces.” The discovery was made in a creek bed that runs between the 14th and 15th holes on Willow Creek Golf Course.
