Santa Baby, Put This Under My Tree! Myrtle Beach Offers Free On-Course Playing Lessons When You Go To Golf School

Myrtle Beach has been giving away a lot this year — free golf, free food, even free beer. But never before has its premier golf school offered a free playing lesson.

As one of the Top 5 golf schools in America, it would be easy for the Phil Ritson-Mel Sole Golf School (located just south of Myrtle Beach in Pawleys Island) to rest on its laurels. After all, the head guy, Mel Sole, is asked to fly inside and outside the U. S. just to impart his special brand of golf knowledge.

But, hey, winter is a lean time in the golf business — even in a relatively warm destination like Myrtle Beach. So Mel —who's always thinking about ways to get more people playing golf — came up with sweetening one of his golf school packages with a high-end goodie — the playing lesson. Similar on-course lessons with a pro can easily run $200 or more. But through February 24, they're free when you book a golf school.

Here's how it works: Mel took his outrageously affordable (and therefore, extremely popular) “Best Ever Golf School Package” and added a nine-hole playing lesson for free. Think about it: 2 and ½ hours out on the course with a top-notch teaching pro focused on you and your game. For free.

And, like all good things, this deal will come to an end. Right now, it's set to run from now through February 24. Now here's some really great news — Mel kept the price steady at $799 per person (based on double occupancy, taxes inclusive). You get a luxurious one-bedroom suite, two rounds of golf with carts on Pawleys Plantation’s signature Jack Nicklaus course, three breakfasts, and three-days of golf instruction at the school. And, a free 9-hole playing lesson by a Ritson-Sole instructor on the Nicklaus course.

Here's your chance to go to golf school and bring home more than just a new understanding of your swing. You can get a better understanding of course strategy and management. And that means you'll start saving more strokes faster.

A package like this would cost three or four times as much at any other Top 25 golf school. So $799 is a great value and a bargain price, laid right at our feet. Don't miss out.

One last thing: this could be the best Christmas gift you give the golfer in your life. He won't know you saved a lot of bucks and you'll get credit for giving the gift of a lifetime.
