Hole No. 18 – Par 5
Black – 509 Yards
White – 493 Yards
Gold – 476 Yards
Red – 399 Yards
This one of the best finishing holes in Myrtle Beach.
A classic risk/reward par 5 that requires accuracy off the tee. A good tee shot will give you the option to potentially go for the green in two.
But beware – the closer you get to this green with your second shot, the more the fairway bottlenecks. This brings water, sand and trees into play.
The safe play is laying back to 100 yards and going for birdie the old-fashioned way.
Pay attention to the hole location because this is a deep green. If you do decide to go for the green, then your approach should favor the left side.
