Looking at scheduling a golf centered bachelor party but we also still want to party and have a good time. Where should we go that wouldn't break the bank? TIA

Vegas, Phoenix

If you really want the golf Wisconsin (whistling straights), Carolina (Pinehurst) or Northern Michigan.

If you don't want to break the bank but have a good time:
Dallas, Biloxi, Destin, Gulf Shores

What is breaking the bank? You just saw someone post about going to Sawgrass for 2 days and 2 rounds of golf for <$1,000 a person.

Probably under $200 a round to keep everyone from bitching

What about travel, etc? Pinehurst will require a rental, etc.

More worried about a good location with good courses at the moment. Once we have some ideas we plan on narrowing down selection based off of cost of traveling, lodging, ect.

Dallas is a great option - if I had 4 days in Dallas this is how I'd do it

Thurs. afternoon - Heritage Ranch (Fairview) ~$75
Fri. morning - Old American ~150
Fri afternoon - Grapevine Muni ~50
Sat - take a day trip to Frankston and play 18 at Pine Dunes, one of the best public courses in the country, especially that no one knows about: LINK / -- $90

Sun - Tierra Verde (~60) in Arlington, then fly out of DFW

Gulf shores/Pensacola.

Have Kiva Dunes, Peninsula, and Gulf Shores Country club all close. Then Flora Bama and Beach for going out.

Rent a house on beach

I’ve done a few of these

Forest Dunes in Roscommon, MI, $850
Streamsong outside Tampa $850
TPC Summerlin in Vegas $dont ask
Scotsdale, TPC, We Ko Pa, ASU Karsten including a PING factory tour, and Troon $1,200
Barton Creek in Austin $750
Bethpage in NY $500 but had a NY resident connection

Really depends on travel. The above costs represent my vague memory of hotel/house rental and rounds. Airfare not included.

ETA: 36 hole sat 18 sun for every course except Vegas because that round along was $$$

San Antonio would be a good spot. Good golf and nightlife

If you like a little of the trashy side, definitely Myrtle Beach.

We played the loop about a month or two after it had been opened to public play. Was really interesting and enjoyable.
The forest course is a real treat. Just takes forever to get there and is in the middle of absolutely no where.

We Ko Pa is an awesome setup and beautiful views. Definitely worth the trip outside the city.

Bandon Dunes and Sea Island. May be a little out of your budget and not offer the nightlife aspect you are looking for, but both are well regarded.
