I played another Mike Strantz gem at Caledonia, just outside Myrtle Beach. Since opening in 1994, this is consistently rated in Golf Digest's Top 100 public courses in America.

I played this course a couple years ago in June. Probably the most scenic and beautiful course I've ever played.

Playing here next weekend. This was a great view of the course and I now have some good ideas for my round. Strantz courses are never easy. I'd be very happy with that round. This is the first time I've seen one of your videos, but you've earned a sub. Great stuff, keep it up!

That 3rd green is a trip. Looks like they can vary the length by 100yds just through pin placement.

Well done. Enjoyed that. You hit the ball well with a lovely draw. The 6th/7th par3 birdie was beautiful. One thing I would recommend is when you are out of position take your medicine and accept the bogey. 1 hole you tried to force a low iron through 2 trees and it went sideways. Just chip out onto the fairway. Another hole you were in a fairway bunker and looked to be hitting a tough long iron and went into the trees. Take your medicine, Hit a PW out of the fairway bunker onto the fairway and accept a bogey. Hope you don’t mind me pointing this out. Once you accept the bogey rather than force a par you get more 1 putt pars then double or triples. Cheers

Love the video. We visit in the spring and once my son is just a couple yrs. older we will definitely try to play this one. On a side note I'm adding that up to +10? I'm used to adding up bigger #'s 😆Unless your app is auto kicking the triple to double for handicap.

Ahh I screwed up the final scorecard! I inputted the score to be a bogey on 14 instead of a par. That number should be a 4, not a 5. Thank you for the sub! Caledonia and True Blue, with is literally across the street, are two courses your son will love.
