reason Myrtle Beach is called “The Golf
Capital of the World.”

Strand. Affectionately referred to as
“The Granddaddy,” Pine Lakes Country

Myrtle Beach has to offer. The spring
golf season showcases courses that have
awakened from their winter slumber. Trees

from colder climates. Fall golf in Myrtle

Welcome to

that make up the area known as the Grand
Strand. The Grand Strand stretches from
just south of Pawleys Island, SC to just over
the North Carolina border in the Brunswick
Isles. This 60 mile stretch offers varied views
and natural terrain that adds to the beauty
and distinction of Myrtle Beach golf.
On the South end, golfers will experience
“Plantation” style courses. These courses
are set on old rice plantations. Many are
lined with centuries-old Live Oak trees that
are draped with Spanish moss. These courses
are set on the inland side of Highway 17 but

known today. Over the years, the number
of courses has grown and includes such
award winning courses as The Dunes Golf
and Beach Club – host to six Senior Tour
Championships; Caledonia Golf and Fish
Club – one of “America’s Top 100
Greatest Public Golf Courses” and
Wachesaw Plantation East – host to four

courses that punish errant shots. The

Even with the playability of most courses,
there are still some challenging holes like a

golfers shouldn’t be lulled into over confidence by the “easy” holes. For golfers who
want to do a little tweaking to their game,
several courses feature golf schools that offer

Myrtle Beach truly is a mecca for

The Founders Club at Pawleys Island, SC
F
ounders Club sits upon the original
site of the former Sea Gull Golf Club, which opened in 1965 as one of the
first golf courses in Pawleys Island. In 2008
after two years and $7 million in renovations,
Founders Club opened its doors as the newest golf course on the Grand Strand.
While Founders Club may be the newest course on the Grand Strand
golf scene, this award-winning
championship course designed
by architect Thomas
Walker, masterfully
embodies both new and
old in its strategic design,
challenging layout and classic low country
feel. Walker successfully blended the course
design into the natural surroundings of the
low country backdrop by combining native area vegetation with innovative course
elements such as Emerald Bermuda, a newly
released strand of grass from Champion
Turf Company.
Recently named one of the “Top 30
Places to Play in South Carolina,” the
Founders Club measures 6,910 yards and
offers a choice of five sets of tees at each hole
with yardage to match any golfer’s skill level.
While minimal cart paths, well-maintained
greens and a new irrigation and drainage
system ensure top quality conditions, the
dramatic canvas of wide fairways, bunker
complexes and large greens makes this 18
hole, par 72 course notoriously known as a
course “that looks harder than it plays.”
State of the art GPS technology in all
of the Founders Club golf carts offers players
innovative insight into the course with
accurate yardages and graphics at each hole.
After you finish your round on the
course, enjoy a meal or beverage overlooking the 10th and 18th holes at the
Founders Club 5,000 square foot clubhouse.
The low country design offers a wrap around
porch, pro shop, locker rooms, dining area,
meeting facilities with fireplace and a full bar.

A Course Review by Mike Maddox of www.WorldGolf.com ~ July 01, 2009
Very interesting design/layout ... never dull.
We played from middle tees, as back tees were
being renovated. Hit every club in bag, and hit
5 different clubs from par 4 and 5 tees. Cart paths
are minimal, as waste bunkers double as paths.
Great experience and value. I was told that the
course is an old one that has been redesigned
in recent years. Kudos for job well-done.
Good shots rewarded, bad ones penalized. Were
refurbishing tee boxes and greens were recovering
from a fungus and were a little thin, but rolled/held
well. All staff very friendly/helpful . . . real people.
Loved the GPS in carts. Nice and classy, but
not flashy.
Masterfully Crafted Holes

COURSE REVIEWS
International Club
When Jack Davis took ownership of
the International Club in 2005, the first
thing he did was order 365 palm trees and
have them planted throughout the course.
Davis bought the palm trees because he
liked them, but the message it sent was
clear: under his direction, International
Club would strive to improve everyday.
More than four years later, evidence of
Davis’ commitment are obvious throughout
the property, and Myrtle Beach golfers are
getting the message.
The clubhouse has been repainted
and re-carpeted, and new trees, bushes and
flowers have been seamlessly integrated
into the property. With the addition
of new tee boxes and a maintenance
International is a fun course to
play. It’s in excellent condition, the
greens are as fast as any and the course
offers the opportunity to post a decent
number without being a pushover.
International isn’t among Golf Digest’s
“100 Greatest Public Courses,” but it’s a
facility that gets better every year. If you
are looking for good golf and good value,
you owe it to yourself to checkout

Prestwick Country Club
Prestwick Country Club in Surfside
Beach, S.C. is a Pete and P.B. Dye designed
golf course that employs berms, mounding
and other links elements that recall its
Scottish namesake, the host of the first
British Open Championship. This is one of
the standouts in Myrtle Beach golf.
At a shade over 7,000 yards from the
tips, Prestwick has enough length to it to
challenge the low handicapper. But there
are five other sets of tees, a nice feature for
higher handicaps, especially as there are
plenty of ways to find trouble here.
Water comes into play on eight holes,
and other holes make use of Dye-trademark
mounding and bunkering. You don’t have
to think too much about your club selection
here - you can swing away - and it’s often
fine to be a little long, as the Dyes have built
many greens to slope back towards you.
The course is kept in meticulous
conditions, the staff is efficient and pleasant,
and the rangers keep the pace of play moving.
There’s plenty to remark on, but one
keeps coming back to those early morning
hours on the course itself.
There might not be a more beautiful
time or place to play golf in Myrtle Beach.
Indian Wells Golf Club
Indian Wells is a solid pick for a
mid-priced golf course in the Grand Strand
thanks to an ingenuitive design that employs
lots of doglegs and maneuvering around trees
and lakes - plus course conditions that make
you think you’re on a premium-priced golf
course. The Bermuda greens are usually kept
in speedy condition, which should delight
lower-handicaps with smooth strokes, they
stand to roll in a few bombs here.
Club amenities include GPS in all
golf carts, a small driving range and two
putting/chipping greens. The clubhouse has
a small grill that serves hot breakfast and
lunch plates, a pro shop with equipment and
COURSE REVIEWS
even more apparel, and a small locker room.
Indian Wells is part of the Classic
Golf Group, and green fees peak at $89, but
off- season rates drop to as low as $40. And
as with all Myrtle Beach golf courses, it can
be booked cheaper through a golf package.

Arrowhead Country Club
Arrowhead Country Club is just a
short five minute trip outside of Myrtle
Beach on Highway 501, and should be
included as a must play on your next golf
vacation. Raymond Floyd designed this
course that was built in 1994. The course
is actually three 9-hole courses, so you can
either play two times on your trip and only
repeat nine holes (they offer special replay
rates within seven days of your original
round). Or, if you are feeling particularly
outside of North Myrtle Beach is the course

location had a great deal of potential to
be very special.
In September 1999, Rivers Edge opened
its doors to the public and has continued
to grow as a top requested course. Over the
last ten years only a few minor changes have
occurred at the course. Just before opening,
Hurricane Floyd visited the area and took
some trees with it. The course rebounded
and opened on schedule to rave reviews from
golfers and media alike. Very recently the
course closed for a short period to renovate
rested, play all 27 in the same day. No
combination of two nines stretch longer
than 6,700 yards, so playing all 27 might
just be doable for some.
Some golfers may see the total
yardage and decide that the driver will get
a rest day. But, some holes are just too
tempting to go for it, so have your driver
handy just incase. Case in point, hole #2
on the Waterway’s nine is one of those
tempting holes. It features a dog leg left
that is tree lined and goes around a pond.
From the back tees, be prepared to carry
your drive 290 yards to make it over the
water and onto the green.
Arrowhead is a great course that
suits many golfers of all skill levels. Be sure
to play it your next time in Myrtle Beach.
Beach. The course is carved
through the Carolina Pines and
hasn’t fallen prey to developers.
That’s right; Crown Park has no
homes in sight. So, the only obstacles you
will encounter during your round are tall
pines, rolling terrain and TifEagle greens.
Crown Park is a great find and well
worth the short trip from North Myrtle
Beach. Not only is the course playable,
quiet and well maintained it also is a great
price especially for all the price includes.

years to really lift and separate them from
other destinations. Many properties have
been upgraded to resorts that offer a long
list of amenities sure to please golfers and
the non-golfers of the group as well. Of
course, the number one amenity is the
