Oyster Bay=Must Play? February 25, 2008, 11:41 pm

by John Barry
I bring a group of high school friends and first job friends (1987!, man I am old) down every year to Myrtle Beach. Last year was the first time we had the absolute pleasure of playing Oyster Bay. (Thanks Barbie, of Beach Vacations for telling us to play here).
The lay out was breath taking, innovative, and out of the norm. The scenery was the best we have ever played. I truely can't remember a favorite hole, we all loved each and every one of them.
We try and play new courses every time we come down, but we are rotating this GEM into every other trip.
The staff was great, friendly, and really wanted out group of 16 (all drinkers) to have a great time, we even shared a round in the club house with the staff (who bought!)
A++ for course, conditions and staff

On one of my first trips to the MB area, I played OB. It along with Pawley's Island are the courses that I remember most fondly. They are the kind of courses that you could play every day and not be bored. There is nothing wrong with Bermuda greens just as there is nothing wrong with poa annua at Newport CC or Olympia. They are perfectly suited for their regions. Just look at the near disaster at East Lake with its "artificial" bent greens.

I have forgotten about more courses in the MB area than most will play in a lifetime. It isnt always about score, slope, grass etc. which by the way OB has, it is about the scenery, design and location, which by the way OB also has. This course is still a must play. I hope however, such favorable articles do not decrease my chances for getting a tee time or raise the cost of my round....
