“A classic Pete Dye layout with a lot of temptations for reward vs risk. Fairways and greens were framed with large mounds and deep bunkering. The par 3’s were especially challenging with longer shots into smaller greens."

“A fun course to play. Pete Dye has his classic railroad ties, with many forced carrys over water. The Tee boxes aren't pointed to the fairway and there is peril waiting on a wayward shot. Overall a good course to play and certainly one of the best in Myrtle to play. The conditioning wasn't very good, the low spots collected water. If they can figure out the conditioning part of things, would be a very strong best in state course."

“A fun Pete Dye course. If you are a fan of Pete's work you'll recognize his trademarks right away and will enjoy it. The big intimidating bunkers, interesting optics and a lot of risk reward options. A really fun mix of not only layout and green designs, but also long and short holes."

“For those looking for a buddy trip or group of courses to visit, the Barefoot Resort is the place to be with 4 courses to choose from. I am not sure I would put the Dye Course at the top of the Barefoot courses, but it is typical Pete Dye design with the diabolical bunkers."

“This course is not nearly as good as it was when I played it the first time soon after it opened. Conditioning has impacted its playability as the bunkers are rock hard as carts are now driven through them. In addition, massive watering makes the greens so soft that it impacts play. This course is not playing as designed, which is a shame as the layout is good."

“The Dye course at Barefoot has a few outstanding holes such as the drivable 10th with water on the inside of the soft dogleg left with an elevated green and the par 4 18th which to me was a kinder, softer and more playable version of the 18th at Sawgrass. Fun and not as penal, the Dye course does a good job in context with Barefoot providing a much different look/feel than the other 3 courses."
