    I'm staying at my parents' winter roost and it's right on a golf course. Sadly, I do not golf. Plus, with the g/f around, I doubt that she'd want to be my caddie.

    I know a guy who knows a guy 'round these parts that'd be perfect to answer your questions. He'll stop by here, I'm sure.

    Broadway at the Beach, as Moddy said, isn't all that, but it does have good bars.

    And as someone said, it's very touristy. Best bet? Go sit on the beach and enjoy it, and stay away from all the assholes.

    A restaurant tip? Bummz, near Breakers. Great for a wintertime (anytime, really) lunch on the beach. Not that I'd know.
     
  3. As someone above mentioned, you can't go wrong with walking down Restaurant Row and finding a good place that will fill your stomach. Enjoy the beach and walk through the shops. I went down there a few years ago for Spring Break, so mostly enjoying the beach is what we did.

    Did the reverse once. Charleston kind of ruins it for everything else around there, nothing can compete. Compared with Charleston, Myrtle Beach is too tacky, Hilton Head too boring, Savannah just a little too small. Did not like Myrtle Beach at all, but then we didn't stick around long, just went back to Charleston. Would like to take another shot at Wilmington, though.

    I'm pretty sure The Masters Club has a caddie service.

    Starve yourself all day.

    Calabash anywhere at night.

    If you don't know what Calabash means... just look for the sign.

    Kind of like saying, "Other than that $20 million I have in the bank, I'm broke."

    There is a neat little shopping area near the restaurants - Barefoot Landing? My wife got me a very cool ring there and loads up on Christmas gifts whenever we are in the area. We usually go for a 3-5 day trip once a year but have been subbing New York in recent years.
