How are the condtions at the Tradtion club and Wachesaw east in myrtle in late October?

I have the pleasure of playing Myrtle beach courses all year. I have played every course this golfing mecca has to offer more than once. These particular courses are always in good shape no matter what time of year. In late October based on my experience, I would first ask if the course is conducting any greens treatment, renovations or overseeding in advance. Obviously, weather plays in to the time frame but normally Myrtle beach remains warm until late November. If the weather that week is good, the fairways and greens will be in good condition and you will have a wonderful experience. Be sure to ask on the green speeds at  Wachesaw. (Lighting fast!). They roll the greens at times to a 12! 

On another note, these two courses are the foundation which Myrtle beach golf started. Tradition being one of the oldest courses on the strip. They are great courses like every course in Myrtle beach. If this is your first time visiting the area, Tradition is favorable because everyone plays it. And everyone speaks of the generous fairways it has.  Both courses lay outs are nice and challenging but for the same price you are likely playing, you can play some better courses in my opinion. Try Wild Wing!. It's a gem of a course with unbelievable practice facilities awesome club house and a layout that will challenge all skill levels. Best of all, not many people play the course because it's not on the main strip like most Myrtle beach courses. Wild wing is about a 40-minute ride west of the airport depending on the week day and traffic   If you can, substitute Wachesaw east with Wild Wing. After all, wide fairways like tradition are rare and everyone has to play tradition simply because its Tradition! If your game is up to more challenging course, then may I suggest Tide water or TPC Myrtle. I have seen legit scratch players not break 80. Bring lots of golf balls! Plenty of water and crossing winds on every hole! I hope this helps?
