P.B. Dye at DeBordieu

P.B. Dye was onsite this past weekend at DeBordieu Club to reshape the bunkers and mounds surrounding the #18 green. The new design should make our great finishing hole more enjoyable.

The sprigging and sodding of the fairways and rough is complete. Both DeBordieu Golf Course Superintendent, Brad Lattimore and Modern Turf are very pleased with the progress so far. The recent rain events have encouraged new growth for the sprigs. Brad is expecting to start mowing some of the fairways on Monday. After the fairways have been mowed for the initial time, the application of herbicides will begin to help control the weeds.

The greens look great! Brad has started the process of slowly reducing the height of the turf. When the course opens in September, Brad is hopeful that they will be rolling between 11 and 12.

With all the new grasses on the course, the sprinklers will be running almost non-stop during the day. Please keep this in mind if you plan to use the cart paths. Thank you for your cooperation and patience during this process.

DeBordieu Golf Course Improvement Project Update

Golf Putting_Green — DeBordieu Putting Green

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

Golf Renovation_on_18th_Tee — 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.

Hopefully, we will get some much needed rain this weekend. When traveling the golf course, please stay on the cart path at all times.

DeBordieu casts the perfect Dye!

Who remembers this DeBordieu 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.)

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.

DeBordieu Colony is an oceanfront community located just south of Pawleys Island, South Carolina featuring private golf and tennis, saltwater creek access to the ocean, a manned security gate, and luxury homes and villas surrounded by hundreds of acres of wildlife and nature preserves.
