After enjoying a few warm days this last week in South Carolina, we found
ourselves thinking about summer and how some days are so hot that you arrange
for the earliest possible tee time. You don’t want to be on the golf course
much past 11 a.m. when the turf heats up and you feel assaulted from below, as
well as above.
There is a price to be paid for a home in a climate that
makes year round golf possible. That price is called July. We checked out both
average temperatures and average high temperatures (in degrees Fahrenheit) for
some of the most popular areas for second-homes and retirement homes on golf
courses. We rank them below from highest average high temperature to lowest.
