Nice course

DB is a nice bang for your buck. A few difficult holes, a few easy and a bunch in the middle. Played on Sunday so pace was not optimal.

The Gem of Gems

I went back again today to play Diamondback.

This snowbird from Montreal is absolutely in love with this Golf course. I just wish this was my home course.

Even though it's an hour drive from where we are staying in Murrels inlet. I would join this club in a heartbeat. You want good conditions . Incredibly friendly staff. Difficult course. Amazing course conditions This course has all of the above.

If you can get through holes 6 7 and 8 without cussing and shaking your head. Then your an all star.

I have played 13 different courses since arriving .

It is my favourite. Believe me not because i score.

It's because it's beauty is off the charts.

Congratulations Diamondback you ROCK

Very nice round on a well groomed course

Beautiful course, nice weather, what's not to like.

Well manicured tees, fairways and greens. The rough is dormant this time of year.

Bring your A game

Diamondback Golf course has easily become one of my favorites. Believe me not because i play it well. Even though it's probably the furthest from where we are staying for the winter. From the minute you get there Dennis at the Bag drop is by far the friendliest of all the courses i have been to so far and most helpful. Then Sherri in the pro shop who also does the snack bar is super smiley and friendly. When all that is taken care of you get to play an incredibly challenging track. Tees for everyone. I strongly suggest moving up from where you usually play at home. Tees fairways and greens are all in great shape for early February. I am already looking forward to get back there shortly. I STRONGLY SUGGEST TO ALWAYS REMEMBER IT'S JUST A GAME.

Because believe me you will and i guarantee you will not score like you usually do.

Pleasant with challenges

This course has some challenging features but is not intimidating for the average golfer. Fairways were well maintained and greens were reasonably fast and true.

1st timer from New England

Very nice course. Top 5 that I have played here in Myrtle as an intermediate golfer. I haven’t played any of the big name popular courses. I was impressed with the challenge of many of the approaches to the greens with steep bunkers and water hazards. Although my pocket wasn’t. Lost quite a few balls. lol. If you’re not looking to play a Grand Dunes or TPC priced type course then Diamond Back is a good option. Looking forward to playing again in March on my next trip down to Myrtle.

Worth the Drive

Greens, Fairways, and Tee Boxes all very good. Several holes had cartpath only because the lower area were a bit spongy!

Played with a couple of local very friendly guys, so I had a good day.

Most Fairway are tree lined and can be a bit tight if you spray it.

Great Golf course

Just finished my first ever game at Diamondback.

Wow very pleasantly surprised. From Dennis the starter to Paul the GM. Everything was perfect. Was very chilly today so not to many people on the course which made for a really quick round 3 1/2 hours. Played with 2 members which helped quite a bit. The layout was awesome and conditions for January were amazing.

The course is quite challenging and not really for beginners i would say. Plenty of tees so choose accordingly. Already looking forward to returning in 3 days. Superintendent your doing a great job.
