GolfChannel.com’s Travel Insider Offers Wealth of Myrtle Beach Info

http://www.myrtlebeachgolf.com/courseguide/image/regular/46.jpgGolf Channel’s Web site offers a treasure trove of information to help you plan your next golf trip – wherever you plan on playing in the 50 states.

But when you visit Golf Channel’s Travel Insider section for the Southeast, it should come as no surprise that the Myrtle Beach area is profiled so uniquely and extensively. Six feature pieces offer compelling insight on the area’s golfing appeal, including:

William K. Wolfrum’s ”Front nine perfect reasons to play golf in Myrtle Beach”, along with his corresponding “Back nine” compilation. Each profile identifies nine holes from courses throughout the Grand Strand – not necessarily the best, but ones that will most certainly whet your appetite for more of what “The Golf Capital of the World” has to offer.
Brandon Tucker’s quest for “Myrtle Beach’s signature hole”. I’ve played two on Tucker’s list; how many can you claim, and what others would you add to his list?
Ian Lenton’s compilation of ”Myrtle Beach’s Hidden Gems,” including some courses that typically register low on the hypemeter but deliver high marks from those who play them.
Lenton’s assessment of the Strand’s best par-3s.
Tucker’s detailed rundown of the 12 South Strand courses that comprise the Waccamaw Golf Trail.
