I would like to know if someone would have a recent update concerning the renovations at the Palmetto course at Myrtlewood. The course closed since June 24. He will reopen for play on Sept. 1.
I read that they will restore the greens to their original size and shape, and install new Sunday Ultradwarf Bermuda grass. Every bunker will be renovated. Palmetto is one of my favorite course. I like the scenery along the Intracoastal Waterway. In my book, at the beginning of April, the 17th hole ( par 3, 162 yards) is probably the nicest hole to play. The Azeleas are beautiful at this time of the year.

Based on the on-line tee times not showing available tee times until Sept 6, it looks
like it has not reopened yet.
I played MW Pine Hills in the spring. They did a good job with the new greens there.

The East Coast has had a lot of humid weather this summer. That is good bermuda
growing weather, if there is enough moisture.

Thanks for this update Art. Palmetto is on my list for next winter.

Looking forward to Palmetto opening back up - I like the old traditional style. It's not a knock your socks off course - but very solid and playable.
Golf is just an excuse to drink whiskey and smoke cigars
Hope this is a great reno so i can add it to my list of must play.
Let the Big Dawg Bark!!!
Will be worth a play once it reopens, decent layout with no real wow factor.
Thanks for the update
