Members and guests at the private DeBordieu Club, about an hour north of Charleston, SC are anxiously awaiting the September completion of the golf course renovation project! Here’s an update from the Club.

 

 

Greens

Renovation on #18 Tee

The greens are doing very well and have reached approximately 90% coverage. The maintenance staff is now mowing the greens four days a week. Sodding around the greens on holes 8-18, including the putting green, is scheduled to start on July 15th. This process should take about a week to complete. While they may look great, the greens are still in the grow-in phase. We are asking all members to please refrain from walking on the greens.

P.B. Dye is onsite to rework the bunkers to the left of the 18th green. This work should be completed in 3-4 days.

Grass:

DeBordieu Club Golf Course Superintendent Brad Lattimore is happy to report that the sprigging of the golf course is complete. Modern Turf and Brad are happy with the grow-in progress so far. Hopefully, we will get some much needed rain this weekend. When traveling the golf course, please stay on the cart path at all times.

Everything you need to get from tee to green is in the new set of Tight Lies— one of golf’s beloved brands for over 10 years! This new complete set of clubs is designed with game improvement features and technology for any golfer who wants to get more distance, accuracy and easy‑to‑hit playability from their golf clubs.

Below is an article about the Adams Tight Lies fairway Woods by Golf Digest’s Zak Kozuchowski. (The pictures of the DeBordieu Club private Pete Dye Golf Course are actually linked to golf course lots currently available for sale. As you read the article, click on the pictures for more details about the homesites.)

“The original Tight Lies fairway woods from Adams Golf were launched in 1995, but 18 years later golfers might need them now more than ever.
Lot 21 17th teesThat’s because of the design of today’s fairway woods, which are much larger than the fairway woods of the past. That added size, combined with breakthroughs in materials and design, has allowed them to fly faster and farther than ever before.

But the added distance hasn’t done much to solve the No. 1 problem most golfers have with fairway woods – from anywhere but off the tee or from a perfect lie in the fairway, they’re extremely hard to get airborne.

That’s why Adams is releasing a 2013 version of the Tight Lies fairway woods, which like the original design will give golfers the confidence to hit a fairway wood even when the lie isn’t perfect.

According to Mike Fox, director of product line management for Adams Golf, the average size of a fairway wood currently hovers around 175 cubic centimeters. But the new Tight Lies fairway woods are only 133 cubic centimeters, and have a shallow, low-profile design that makes them extremely forgiving and easy to get airborne.

Generally, smaller, low-profile fairway woods lack the distance of larger, deeper-face designs, but Fox said that golfers shouldn’t worry about losing yards with the Tight Lies. That because for the first time, Adams is using its “Cut-Through Slot Design” in a fairway wood –  slots on the crown and sole of the club that increase spring-like effect.

And despite the fact that the Tight Lies are higher spinning than Adams’ larger, deeper-faced Super S and LS fairway woods, and have a slightly lower CT, many golfers will actually hit the Tight Lies farther than those clubs because of the increased carry and consistency.”

So don’t forget to sign up for an appointment for your demo at DeBordieu Club!

DeBordieu casts the perfect Dye!

Who remembers this DeBordieu poster????

Pete Dye Poster

It was produced way back in 1986, when I first started working at DeBordieu, (marketing real estate and club memberships) but for the life of me, I can’t remember the artist’s name. (If YOU know,  please let me know.)

Lot_53_square_view_aerial

We wanted to produce a poster to commemorate the collaborative efforts of Pete Dye and his son P. B. Dye, and the fantastic job they did designing the private golf course at DeBordieu Club.

Hole #4 is said to be Pete’s favorite hole at DeBordieu, so it was the golf hole we featured.

These posters are hanging many homes at DeBordieu, and some in homes of cities like Charlotte, Columbia and Atalanta, where people have their primary residences and use DeBordieu as their place to get away from the maddening crowd.

The entertainment value of being able to watch your fellow club members hit their tee shots across the lake is priceless!If you’re interested in a great water view across this par 3, you’ll enjoy knowing that Lot #53 Wallace Pate Drive is for sale.

The lot is loaded with oaks, and is located just a quick golf cart ride to the Golf Clubhouse, Oceanfront Beach Club, Tennis Club and boat landing access to some of the best fishing on the East Coast! Lot #53 Dimensions are 120 x 203 x 99x 203. DebClubHole#4
