Here is a video summary of a recent golf groups’ trip to Myrtle Beach.  They played almost 126 holes of myrtle beach golf (121 to be exact, lost daylight) in the middle of November.  They were the 1st to tee off in the morning and the last to leave the course in the evening.  Now that’s dedication.  Getting in the last rounds of golf for the year, before heading back north.  I’m sure they will be back in Myrtle Beach soon.

• Did you know that a divot that is not repaired with sand takes at least 3 weeks to heal?

• Did you know a ball mark that is not repaired takes over a month to heal – a ball mark that is repaired heals in 24 hours.

• Keep these facts in mind next time you play.  Just imagine the upkeep to the Myrtle Beach Golf Courses as they play over 200 people per day.
