You can’t go wrong with Scottsdale! Amazing courses and tons of nightlife. Plus, many resorts have package deals that include golf, which helps with budgeting!
True, but don’t forget about Orlando! Great courses and family-friendly attractions if you want to mix it up.
Budgeting for meals can be a challenge too. I suggest cooking some meals if you’re renting a place. It can really cut costs!

That’s a smart move! Also, carpooling is a great way to save on gas. It’s social and economical, plus you meet new golf buddies!
Weather can be unpredictable! A good tip is to check historical weather data before booking. Planning a backup indoor activity can save the trip!
Has anyone dealt with weather issues on trips? Makes me hesitant to book sometimes.

True! And always have an umbrella in the bag—just in case! It could be a fun story later!
Reflecting on past trips, I realized planning each day’s itinerary helps maximize the trip. Have a flexible plan but try to stick to it!
Agreed! Too many trips wasted time deciding what to do next. What’s the best way to track and share the itinerary with everyone?
I recently went to Pebble Beach for a weekend trip. The course was in pristine condition, and the scenery was breathtaking. Definitely a high difficulty level, but worth every penny! Highly recommend it!
That sounds amazing! I’ve heard a lot about Pebble Beach’s beauty. How would you rate the pace of play?
If you’re into challenging courses, I suggest TPC Sawgrass. The 17th hole is iconic! It was packed during my trip, but the course was well-maintained, which made up for the slower pace. Have fun planning your trip!

I’ve wanted to play TPC Sawgrass for ages! How did you find the green fees? Worth it for the experience?
Definitely worth the price! The experience and challenge outweigh the cost for me. Also, don’t miss out on the clubhouse. Great food post-round! Would recommend going during the shoulder season for better rates.
I played at a local favorite, Glenwood Hills. It’s a hidden gem! The staff is super friendly, and it’s relatively easy, making it perfect for a fun weekend trip with friends. Highly recommend it for a relaxed vibe!
Sounds great! I love local courses. Were the greens in good shape there?

Yes, the greens were in fantastic shape! Really smooth and quick. It’s a great place for beginners and seasoned players alike. Perfect spot for a weekend getaway to just unwind.
I’d recommend checking out the courses in Myrtle Beach. There are tons to choose from, with varying difficulty levels. I played a few last summer and had a blast, plus the nightlife is a bonus!
Nightlife and golf? That’s a win-win! How did you find the course conditions? I’ve heard mixed reviews.
Honestly, most courses I played were in pretty good shape, though a couple had some rough spots but nothing to ruin the experience. Plus, the beach was nearby—easy to relax after a round!
