Tom the Golf Nut Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 WOW, My boss is going to Pebble Beach for a round with his former boss.

Sounds like it's something that won't be too much to pay when you are "the boss". BTW, it's too much to pay for this retired person because for me the cost would be $1380... my wife wouldn't let me go alone.

Currently resort stay isn't required. You don't have to pay for a cart if you are a resort quest. Big woop, its still $575. But you are right it will cost a lot more than just the golf.

Yeah TPC is not conducive to senior play. Since the Founders Group has taken over they have a sense of importance and are really arrogant over there. I live 2 miles from it. I am thinking where you had the 1 lb burger at was River City Cafe. And BTW this may seem trivial but TPC offends many down here on this end.

The main drag of Myrtle Beach looks like the Las Vegas strip with all the flashing lights and bars and buffets. We haven’t been back to MB since we sold the Condo, probably 12-15 years ago. MB was changing quickly even then. tony@CIC, BIG STU, MattF and 1 other 4 Quote Rick Left Hand, Driver; PXG 0311XF Cypher 50 gr Senior 5 wood; Ping 425, Senior Shaft 55 gr 7 wood; Ping 425, Senior Shaft 55 gr 5 hybrid; Cally Steelhead, Hazardous R2 Irons; Mizuno JPX 923HM 7-GW Recoil 460 F2 Wedges; Titleist S9 54*, Mizuno SW 56* Putter; Waaay too many to list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not been up on the Boulevard proper since I got out of the towing business in 13. Now When I was running for the scrapyard we were off of Seaboard street. Since I got hurt in 2020 I have been to Myrtle 3 times for lawyers appointments. Since June of 2021 I have not been north of SC 544 at Surfside and I like it that way. If we can not do it between Surfside and Pawleys then it aint worth doing IMHO. I am what is called a true Garden City/ Murrells Inlet hermit. We also have other versions called Pawleys Island / Murrells Inlet hermits too. I dont got to Conway either aint lost a darn thing there either Kenny B, MattF, tony@CIC and 1 other 3 1 Quote Driver ---- Callaway Big Bertha Alpha Speeder 565 R flex- 5W TM V-Steel Fubuki 60r--- 7W TM V-Steel UST Pro Force Gold 65R----- 9 W TM V Steel TM MAS stiff---- Irons 2015 TM TP CB Steel Fiber 95 R--- GW Callaway Mack Daddy 2 52* shaft unknown junk pile refugee.
