The golfer’s definitive source for the very best and most complete information on Myrtle Beach golf!
Welcome to the new and still improving MBGA.COM!
As with most well-intentioned journeys and projects the first few steps are easy, then the process slows dramatically as new ideas, robust discussions, feature concepts, creative design and formatting options arise to improve and enhance the traveling golfers’ quest.
Such has, obviously, been the case in the Myrtle Beach Golf Association’s seven month effort to redesign, upgrade, improve and enhance our 10-year old website MBGA.COM.
Well, patient and supportive friends we think that we’ve added all of the components and features you’ve been asking for – like the long-awaited golf maps and online tee time booking.
Since the launching of the all new MBGA.COM, we have been getting excellent and greatly appreciated feedback and input from all segments of the golfing community, and are continuing to strive to improve our unique website even further. Towards that end the MBGA Team looks forward to hearing your feedback on what you think of the new MBGA.COM, how we can improve it and also if you find something that isn’t working to your satisfaction.
So, again we say, “Welcome to the new and improving MBGA.COM, and many thanks for your continued support.

MBGA.COM is the only Myrtle Beach golf website providing golfers with current and candid Myrtle Beach golf course rankings and Myrtle Beach golf course ratings, which are actually based upon feedback from the traveling golfers and Myrtle Beach golf industry insiders.
Myrtle Beach golf industry continues to struggle!
Prior to the economic crash, the Myrtle Beach golf industry had been in a slow but steady decline since 1998, culminating today in the loss of over one million paid rounds of golf annually; the closing of 19 golf courses and the loss of over 2,000 golf industry jobs.
2008 was one of the worst years ever with the first double-digit decline, and 2009 was even worse with a 15-25% decline, depending on the golf course or lodging property surveyed.
Myrtle Beach Golf Association has been struggling too!
Needless to say, Myrtle Beach Golf Association has taken our share of hits as well.
While profits have never been a consideration in the Myrtle Beach Golf Association’s 11-year history, our costs have escalated dramatically and our team of dedicated and professional Myrtle Beach golf industry “insiders” has grown smaller, while the challenges of keeping track of the golf courses, restaurants and, especially, the golf packagers have intensified four-fold.
Check-out the Myrtle Beach Golf Association’s “Myrtle Beach Golf Course Directory”
Get one-click access to everything you need to about every golf course in the Myrtle Beach, South Carolina area. The Myrtle Beach Golf Course Directory features each golf course’s MBGA “star” rating and which Myrtle Beach golf courses have closed.
Each of the 97 Myrtle Beach golf courses is presented in the Myrtle Beach Golf Course Directory in a standardized format for easier evaluation and decision-making.
On each golf course’s MBGA web page golfers will find the important details that all golfers want to know such as… architects, grassing, slopes, course ratings, contact information and more.
MBGA “Star” Ratings
On the Myrtle Beach Golf Association’s Golf Course Directory, and on each golf course’s descriptive page, you will find one to five “stars” representing the MBGA rating for that course, with one “star” 
representing our worst rating and five “stars” signifying our highest rating.
The MBGA rankings are based upon each course’s layout, playability, challenge, imagination, beauty, pricing, actual conditions (course, clubhouse, restrooms, cleanliness, etc.), practice facilities, pace-of-play, as well as the amount of development around the course and the quality of their, food and beverage facilities. Particular emphasis and consideration is placed upon the professionalism and friendliness of the staff at each Myrtle Beach golf course.

MBGA Player’s Top 20 and the MBGA Basement
Regardless, whether you have one pick or 20, please send your Player’s Top 20 golf course nominees, comments and any other feedback, which you may deem helpful to Top20@mbga.com.
Note: While it is certainly not required, it would be very helpful if you would take a moment and rank your nominees for the Player’s Top 20, with your number “1” pick being the “Best Golf Course in Myrtle Beach,” and “20” being your last nominee for the MBGA Player’s Top 20 roster.
How about those crummy Myrtle Beach golf courses and lodging properties that you wouldn’t want your fellow golfers to get stuck playing, or staying in? Simply send those “lemons” to the Myrtle Beach Golf Association at Basement@mbga.com and they will be considered for inclusion in the dreaded MBGA Basement. Please send your Basement nominees today, along with any comments and any other feedback, which you may deem helpful.
Note: Again, while it is certainly not required, it would be very helpful if you would take a moment and rank your golf course nominees for the MBGA Basement as well, with your number “1” pick signifying the “Worst Golf Course in Myrtle Beach,” and “20” representing your “best-of-the-worst courses in town.”
