Wild Wing Avocet
A Jeff Brauer and Larry Nelson design in Conway, South Carolina, Wild Wing Avocet blends creative hole shapes, rolling mounds, complex bunkering, double greens, dual fairways, MiniVerde Bermuda greens, and one of Myrtle Beach golf’s most entertaining risk-reward personalities.
A creative Conway round with more personality than a normal scorecard can hold.
Wild Wing Avocet is one of the Myrtle Beach area’s most creative layouts, giving golf groups a round full of choices instead of a plain parade of fairway, green, repeat. It is bold, playable, and just odd enough to keep everyone in the group talking.
Designed by Jeff Brauer and three-time major champion Larry Nelson, Avocet plays as a par 72 and stretches to 7,127 yards from the championship tees. The course uses mounding, bunkers, wide movement, and green complexes that invite imagination around the targets.
Avocet is known for memorable features, including double greens, dual fairways, complex bunkering, and a drivable par-4 14th that lets nearly every player briefly believe something heroic is about to happen.
The course is also connected to the nine-hole Hummingbird course, making Wild Wing a useful stop for groups that want an 18-hole round with the option to sneak in extra golf without turning the day into a logistics fog machine.
Creative Nelson-Brauer routing
Avocet is built around variety, using double greens, dual fairways, contour, and creative options to make the round feel alive from start to finish.
Drivable par-4 14th
The 14th gives players one of the most fun risk-reward decisions on the course, with eagle dreams and bogey paperwork both sitting in the waiting room.
Undulating green complexes
The greens and surrounding swales ask for touch, imagination, and enough short-game patience to avoid turning a good hole into a tiny opera.

How Wild Wing Avocet plays.
Avocet is a fun course because it rarely gives you one boring answer. The best scores come from choosing the correct option, using the contours, and keeping enough imagination around the greens to survive the swales and slopes.
- Choose the right route. Dual fairways and wider visual options can tempt players into lines that look clever but leave awkward approaches.
- Handle the green surrounds. The undulating putting surfaces and swales reward touch. Missing on the wrong side can turn a routine up-and-down into finger painting.
- Think on the 14th. The drivable par 4 is there to be challenged, but the smart play depends on wind, confidence, and whether your driver is behaving like a citizen.
- Best group fit. A strong choice for groups that want a memorable Conway round, creative architecture, scoring chances, and a layout with real conversation value.
