Hard to believe that autumn soltice is here.  This solstice is always sad for me, as it means the official end of summer.  For a lot of Mid-Atlantic areas it also means that the weather turns cooler and everyone gets too busy to go to the beach.

My answer to that is to head a little further south for Myrtle Beach golf courses, where the weather is warmer longer in the year and the fall is an excellent time to play golf. In fact, September and October are fantastic weather months in South Carolina. There is less high heat during the day and always a nice cool breeze, so your optimum window of playing time is expanded.

There are great Myrtle Beach golf packages available online, and I like to book my whole trip before I leave home. I like to choose the golf course first and the hotel or resort second. Maybe that’s backwards from what other people do, but it works for me. Just have to go to http://www.myrtlebeachgolf.net and see what is available. In a few clicks I can have the whole outing arranged, including the tee times, and it gives me something really nice to look forward to.
