Long Bay Golf Course
Address: 350 FoxTail Dr, Longs, SC 29568 (map it)
Long Bay Club is rightly named as one of the most challenging and difficult courses on the Grand Strand. Golfers who are able to tame this Jack-Nicklaus course will feel strong enough to face the Golden Bear himself! What makes this course so challenging? A formidable 137 slope from the back tees, lethal mounds near the green forcing a new approach to the wedge game, deadly par 3s, deep bunkers surrounding the smaller Bermuda landing surfaces, and the famous monster 353-yard number 10 with its distinctive horseshoe shaped bunker.
The par 3s are handsome, but destruction on the scorecard. The best of the four par 3 holes is number 13, a wide island green with several tricky pin placements--players who choose too far to the left will pay a visit to the drop area. The most memorable holes include par 4s number 4 and 18, and par 5s number 11 and 15. The 472 yard number 4 is widely considered the most difficult hole on this already challenging course, including a narrow fairway guarded by waste areas and a hole requiring a left-to-right tee shot. The par 5s are similar but distinctive, both containing a dogleg—547-yard number 11 to the left, and 492-yard number 15 running to the right.
A meandering creek on the second shot and a water hazard running by the right side of the green adds to the danger. Roger Batton said of the course, "Most of the time when players walk off the course, they're not frustrated but they're coming back because of the challenge of it."
