Myrtle Beach 2010 (Option XXX)







Today's Myrtle Beach 2010 trip option is called the Triple X option, because it's so good course wise, it's X rated. The Barefoot Resorts, with their 4 courses, all of which are in Golf Digest's Top 100 Course You Can Play, are on tap here.
I was not even considering this package, until they just announced a special, book 3 rounds get a 4th free. Names of the courses? The Dye, The Norman, The Fazio, and The Love. I don't have to explain to you whom they are named after, and this is actually the grand daddy of all packages, and the most expensive by far. With 28 people, are price per person is 392.00 per person.
I will not be pushing for this packages, but let the pictures speak for themselves.


BAREFOOT:THE NORMAN COURSE:

Greg Norman's newest design at Barefoot Resort is unique in many ways. With only 60 acres of mowable grass existing on all 18 holes, Greg uses stunning waste areas and the site's natural vegetation to frame each hole. The course resembles one found in the deserts of the southwest, without the desert. The course also features several holes along the scenic Intracoastal Waterway.

Norman has already achieved great reviews for his previous work and he is excited about his latest design stating "We have a fabulous piece of property with great elevations and the developer has spared no expenses to insure that this course is the absolute best it can be:"



BAREFOOT: THE LOVE COURSE:

Carolina native and leading PGA TOUR professional Davis Love, III, winner of the 1997 PGA Championship may have solidified his reputation as a course designer with his newest creation at Barefoot Resort. Competing with other architects in the Barefoot Resort project such as Fazio, Norman and Dye, Davis was determined to build a course that was unique, visually striking and fun to play.

The course even incorporates a replica of ruins from a 17th Century plantation house, similar to ruins found along holes in Scotland and Ireland.



BAREFOOT: THE FAZIO COURSE:

Tom Fazio, voted by Golf Course News as "Golf Course Architect of the Year" five years in a row, brings his design expertise to a rolling parcel of land at the heart of Barefoot Resort. Golfweek Architecture Editor Brad Klein states that Fazio has "perfected a certain formula for creating overwhelming, lovely holes that are meticulously manicured and pleasant to play."

Living up to such acclaim, Fazio's Barefoot Resort Course is certain to attract more national acclaim. Off the tees, players will be greeted with stunning visuals and 18 distinct holes that will all be remembered after your round. Be one of the first to enjoy this fantastic new course.



BAREFOOT: THE DYE COURSE:

Famed architect Pete Dye maintains his reputation of building memorable and challenging - courses with the Dye Course at Barefoot Resort. This visually stunning design is filled with Dye's infamous pitfalls for wary shots. Working with exceptional elevations and an excellent site, this course lives up to the Dye name.


Dye's course is one of four championship golf courses built concurrently at North Myrtle Beach's 2,377 acre Barefoot Resort, and is the only one of the four to be semi-private.
