I'll bring my laptop. The earlier I know if we have enough guys, the better...can use my air miles for a round trip to Atlanta to get the cost down, but need to book early. Is it better to fly or drive from Atlanta? What airlines fly to Myrtle Beach? Lots of flights to myrtle beach are seasonal -- during peak tourist season in the summer (May-August). In October your selection might be more limited, but I'm quite certain that Delta, American, and Southwest fly to Myrtle regularly. I'd definitely suggest flying from ATL to Myrtle, it'd be about a 5 hour drive I think. Versus like a one hour flight. |

Charlotte would be closer than Atlanta if you can find a flight into Charlotte. It's about 2 hours closer, I think.

Interesting. Halfway around the world, but put me on the tentative list!

Yea, if anyone flies into Charlotte, they could ride with me, I'm 8 minutes from the Charlotte airport.

Jealous of this - if I was in the US I'd be there like a shot. Anyone want to organise a UK one? |

Sounds amazing but I'm 80% sure I'll be in Asia on business during this time. Plus I'm already using my getaway trip to see the Masters in April. Hope something like this is happening in 2016! Keep me on a futures list |

I like the courses near Pinehurst...but Myrtle Beach is probably cheaper.
Around Pinehurst there's Tobacco Road, Dormie, Legends, Mid South... lots of good tracks.

Perhaps this can be an annual thing? I don't think I can make it down to the southeast for this, but if we ever alternate locations and you're up closer to the Midwest I'd definitely be interested. (I'm in MI. A few courses here are listed in the top 100 so maybe check em out for next time Although October is mid 50-60s at best so it'd either have to be in the summer or first half of September or so or you southern/SoCal guys might need some jackets.) I'm still interested in this and will give it thought, but I don't have much disposable income so I won't know til closer to. |

I will be interest in this if done in Japan  70 Fahrenheit in October +1! But I think we are pretty much the only people on here for who that would be convenient. And - probably the guys on here would be too confused with the multiple greens per hole and frustrated by the abundant OB that most Japanese courses like to showcase.... |
