Myrtle Beach Golf Tips

How to Save Hundreds of Dollars Playing Golf in Myrtle Beach

2026-09-12 by Ben Hunt

Golf course near the coast in Myrtle Beach.

Myrtle Beach has earned its reputation as one of America’s favorite golf destinations. If you want to save money playing golf in Myrtle Beach, a little planning can make a big difference—especially when you’re playing several rounds during your trip.

With an outstanding selection of golf courses, more than 60 miles of beaches, great restaurants, live entertainment, and accommodations for nearly every budget, Myrtle Beach makes it easy to build an entire vacation around your golf trip.

However, playing several rounds at regular public rates can get expensive quickly. With the right approach, you could save hundreds of dollars while still playing some of the Grand Strand’s most popular courses.

How Much Could You Save?

Oyster Bay Golf Links near Myrtle Beach

Let’s look at three well-known Myrtle Beach-area courses:

  • Oyster Bay Golf Links
  • Legends Golf Resort
  • The Heritage Club

Based on current public rates compared with available MyGolf member rates, a golfer playing one round at each of these three courses could save approximately $240 in total.

That works out to average savings of more than $80 per round. For two golfers playing the same three courses, the combined savings could approach $500.

Rates vary throughout the year, but this example shows how quickly the savings can add up during a multi-round Myrtle Beach golf trip.

Plan Your Tee Times Carefully

The time of year, day of the week, and time of day can all affect golf rates and tee-time availability.

During the busy spring and fall seasons, Thursday through Saturday usually brings the highest demand. If your schedule is flexible, playing Sunday through Wednesday can often provide better availability and more options.

It also helps to select courses in the same general area. The Grand Strand stretches for more than 60 miles, so grouping courses by location can reduce driving time and give you more time to enjoy your trip.

Two Ways to Plan Your Myrtle Beach Golf Trip

Not every golfer plans a trip the same way, so MyGolf offers two different ways to approach your tee times.

Book With Your MyGolf Membership

MyGolf’s preferred member rates are ideal for individual golfers, couples, and smaller groups with some flexibility in their schedules.

Members log in to view current rates, booking windows, and important course notes. They then contact the participating golf course directly, identify themselves as MyGolf members, and make their tee times.

Most MyGolf booking windows range from 48 hours to seven days in advance. Members pay the golf course directly and present their digital membership card at check-in.

Because each golf course controls its own pricing and availability, members should always review the latest information before booking.

Plan Ahead With GolfZoo

Golf group planning a Myrtle Beach golf trip

We understand that many golf groups prefer to secure their tee times and accommodations well before traveling—especially during Myrtle Beach’s busy spring and fall golf seasons.

Through MyGolf’s partnership with GolfZoo, golfers can plan complete golf packages in advance. GolfZoo can help arrange tee times, accommodations, and customized packages based on the group’s preferred dates, courses, and budget.

This gives golfers a choice: use MyGolf preferred rates when flexibility and savings are the priorities, or work with GolfZoo when securing a complete trip well in advance is more important.

Bring Your Golf Group

Golf trips are usually more fun when shared with family and friends.

Through the National 3 Guest Program™, a MyGolf member may bring up to three guests at participating courses. Guest rates are determined by each golf course and are typically only $5–$10 more than the MyGolf member rate.

This can make a real difference for couples, families, and small golf groups looking for better value without sacrificing the quality of their golf experience.

Make It a Complete Myrtle Beach Golf Getaway

Myrtle Beach coastline and vacation attractions

Great golf may bring you to Myrtle Beach, but there is plenty to enjoy after your round.

The Grand Strand offers beautiful beaches, live entertainment, shopping, and attractions for golfers and non-golfers alike. The area is also known for its wide variety of restaurants—from local seafood spots and casual favorites to waterfront dining and upscale options.

You’ll find accommodations for almost every type of trip, including golf resorts, oceanfront hotels, vacation rentals, and homes large enough for an entire golf group.

Whether you’re planning a weekend with friends, a couples getaway, or a family vacation with a few rounds mixed in, Myrtle Beach makes it easy to combine great golf with everything you want from a beach vacation.

More Ways to Enjoy Your Membership

MyGolf membership extends beyond the Myrtle Beach area. Members have access to preferred rates and benefits at more than 40 participating courses across several golf destinations, including Hilton Head, Orlando, Williamsburg, the Sand hills of North Carolina, Wilmington, and the coastal Carolinas.

Additional benefits include monthly Play Pass opportunities, golf-travel savings, lodging benefits, member specials, and other offers throughout the year.

A Little Planning Can Produce Big Savings

The best Myrtle Beach golf trips combine good courses, smart scheduling, comfortable accommodations, and time to enjoy everything the beach has to offer.

Before paying the regular public rate, take a few minutes to compare your options. As the three-course example shows, one golfer could save approximately $240 over just three rounds. Those savings could help cover another round of golf, a great dinner, or part of your lodging.

Golfers who prefer flexibility can take advantage of MyGolf’s preferred member rates, while groups that want everything confirmed ahead of time can plan their trip through GolfZoo.

Your first round of savings could even more than cover the cost of a MyGolf membership.

Golf rates, estimated savings, booking windows, guest pricing, and tee-time availability are determined by each participating golf course and may change without notice.

15 Ways to Play Better Golf on a Budget

2018-08-19 by Ben Hunt

15 Ways to Play Better Golf on a Budget

It’s funny how some wealthy members at country clubs (yes- we know there are exceptions) aren’t interested in improving their golf games, yet many golfers who play at different public courses would give an arm and a leg to shoot even par.
Although we’re not in the position to make an accurate assessment of causality, we can relate to those of you who just don’t have the funds to buy the best golf equipment, practice at the nicest practice facilities, and play at the nicest courses.

The bad news…
We can’t teach you how to make money.

2. Save Your Golf Grips/Learn How to Re-Grip Your Golf Clubs

First, if you are prone to switching grips often, learn how to save them rather than cutting them off every time you want to change.
Also, learn how to re-grip your golf clubs in general. It will save you the $1 or $2 fee for re-gripping at the golf store, not to mention the gas price of driving to and from the store.
There are lots of sites and YouTube videos showing you how to re-grip clubs, as well as several other clubmaking and refinishing techniques. It comes at a small price, but will save you loads of money down the road. Lots tutorials can be found scattered across the internet and deep in golf forums, so choose what works for you.

3. Build Your Own Set of Golf Clubs

Going off the last point, if you have the clubmaking skills to do so, we would recommend building your own set of golf clubs. By “building,” we mean purchasing each of the components separately (grips, shafts, ferrules, tip weights, butt weights, clubheads, etc.) and then putting them together.
By purchasing separate components, you can save tons of money.
Don’t forget, sometimes, you can find some unbelievable deals on Ebay.

4. Learn How to Sell Your Unwanted Clubs on Ebay

This is a great way to recover some money from the clubs that you no longer use, and sure beats the cringe-worthy trade-in offers that you’ll get when reselling to a golf store.

5. Set up a Home Practice Area

One of the best ways to improve your golf game while saving money is by setting up a home practice area. Once set up, you will have a space for endless improvement that doesn’t require any additional expenses, or gas money.

6. Make Your Range Practice More Realistic

If you are looking to save money and improve your golf game, quit buying the extra large buckets of balls at your local range! You really don’t need that many golf balls to get better.
If you want to change your golf swing, practice the motions over and over in front of a mirror, or use a video camera/ smartphone to record your swing and then take what you’ve learned to the range. If you try to make changes at the range without someone watching you, chances are, you will make yourself worse, and walk away with an entirely different looking swing than you thought you were practicing.

7. Go to a Mini Tour Event

Something that 99.9% of golfers overlook is the opportunity to attend a Mini-Tour golf event. Watching professionals play is a great way to see what it takes to shoot a low score, but the majority of people think that attending a PGA Tour event is the only option.
The problem is, PGA Tour events cost hundreds of dollars to attend, and with the large galleries, it is often difficult to really see the action.
What if you could spend $10 and see guys who are on the verge of breaking through to the PGA Tour play? What if we told you that you would be able to follow any player you wanted for the entire round, and never have your view blocked by some 6’5″ guy in front of you? What if we told you that you might even get to speak to one of the professionals?
Well, you can!
The Web.com tour sells tickets for roughly $10, and you can see some of the best golfers in the world play!
Here is the Web.com Tour schedule.
Also check out this Wikipedia page, which lists the different mini-tours that you could follow.

8. Take Advantage of YouTube

If you need some words of advice, there are tons of awesome instructional videos on YouTube to learn from. That said, it is extremely important to be weary of bad advice, because thanks to YouTube’s low barrier to entry, just about anyone can create videos.
We personally enjoy watching PGA Tour clinics like so.

9. Visualize

One of the most beneficial things that you can do for your golf game is spend a few minutes in a chair or in bed at night visualizing the golfer that you would like to be.
The problem is, next to NOBODY actually has the discipline to do it.
If you want to separate yourself from the crowd, spend 10 minutes every few days visualizing the outcomes, the shots, and the thoughts that you want on the golf course. For more on this, We recommend purchasing the book Your 15th Club by Bob Rotella, and flipping to the section titled “affirmations.”

10. Write in a Golf Journal

Another great way to improve the game is to keep track of it in a golf journal.
By keeping a daily/weekly golf journal, you WILL start to notice trends in your game that you previously had a blind eye to.

11. Meditation

Meditation is always a great option for the busy mind.
On the golf course, it is extremely easy to let your thoughts get the best of you. Daily meditation allows you to treat your thoughts as separate entities from your mind, and allows you to separate emotionally from them when needed. This helps me handle my negative golf thoughts during a round much more effectively. If you want to get started with meditation, consider downloading a free app.
Not only will this improve your golf game, but your life in general!

12. Buy the Right Golf Clubs

There is nothing more frustrating than purchasing a set of golf clubs, and then finding out a week later that you don’t want them anymore.
Do your research!!!

13. Be Mindful of What Golf Advice you are Taking

Bad golf advice is costly.
So make sure that you’ve done your fair share of research before buying into a swing philosophy or teacher.

14. Use Himalayan Salt rather than Gatorade/Powerade

How much does a Gatorade cost at the golf course? $3? $5?
How many summer rounds of golf do you play where you purchase a Gatorade or Powerade?
A great alternative (cheaper) to Gatorade/Powerade is to use Himalayan salt. Just drop a pinch in your water on the course, and enjoy the electrolytes without the high cost and damaging sugars!

15. Bring Food for your Golf Rounds

Unless you happen to play at a golf course that serves good food at an extremely low price, one of the best ways to save money is bringing your own food. No sense in gobbling down a hot dog with chips for $5 if you could eat something 10x healthier for less than $2
Here are a few suggestions:
• Apple
• PB&J (on whole wheat)
• Cliff Bar
• Pretzels
• Trail Mix
• Beef Jerky
