Straighten Up and Fly Right!
DeBordieu's #7
What I love about number 7 is that you can hear the ocean from the green! Avid golfers love it because it's a great opportunity to hit it looooooong and straight!
"Number seven doglegs slightly to the right and will be a favorite of the big hitters. Choose your straightest long-distance club and have at it, but be aware that the fairway landing area is flanked on both sides by natural rough, from which you will face a very difficult second shot. Even so, try to keep your drive toward the left, where you will have a clear approach to the large green. The green is ensleeved in a large bunker that begins on the left and winds behind. Three deep pot bunkers lie in the right rear, while another long trap is found on the right front. A solid fairway wood will be your best approach shot."
There are a couple of great lots with high elevations for sale on number 7. What this means is that you won't have to build high off the ground unless you just want the great view. If you choose, you can build close to the ground....or, you can just move right into this spectacular 5BR home. Click the picture for details.

"With SIX you get eggroll!"
DeBordieu's Golf Hole #6
"The longest hole at DeBordieu is a double dogleg that first snakes to the right and then winds left. Off the tees to the left is a big lake, so don’t hook it. Immediately after the first turn, you will see a huge, sprawling natural area to the left, made up of coquina sand. You would do well to avoid this by aiming your second shot right up the middle of the fairway. The green, which should now be in sight, is locked up tighter than Fort Knox. A lake begins where the natural area ends and winds around the back. The right of the green is protected by a giant, free-form grass bunker, while a perilous pot bunker sits immediately on the front left."
There are currently two beautiful homesites for sale bordering DeBordieu's Hole Number Six: Lot #3 listed at $200,000, and Lot #5, listed at $395,000. (And yes, if you purchase one of these lots, I WILL get you an eggroll!)

Gim'me Five!
DeBordieu Golf Hole #5 - par 4
(I've lost a few balls on this one too.)
"Number five offers golfers a bird’s eye view of fairways, lakes and greens from the tee, situation atop a huge knoll nearly 20 feet high. Here you must hit your drive into a fairly narrow landing area flanked on both sides by pines and oaks. Avoid the pot bunkers on the fairway’s left. Your second shot requires surgical precision, for the green is bulk-headed up against a lake on the right, which you must cross to get home. Should you choose to play it safe and aim for the bail-out area to the front left, you may pay the price if your ball lands in one of the three bunkers nearby".
There are two properties available on Hole Number 5. Lot #68 has been recently reduced to $269,000! The other is a spectacular home at 20 Brandon Way. Click on the pictures for details.
Please give me a call at 843-455-4523, or email TroiKaz@DeBordieu.com if you would like to consider these or any other property in this very special oceanfront community just south of Pawleys Island, South Carolina.

My Favorite!
DeBordieu Golf Hole #4
Way back when I was the golfer in our family, (my how times have changed), this was my favorite DeBordieu Golf Hole! Three reasons: (1) I love par threes, (2) this one is really fun, and (3) it's just gorgeous! The only down side I remember is the number of balls I lost on this one. Here's the write up from DeBordieu Club's Hole by Hole description:
"This, the quintessential par three water hole, rivals Pete Dye’s famous 17th at the TPC for beauty and challenge. Standing on the tee, you will see nothing between you and the green but a sparkling lake. Choose a lofted club for task—you have very few options other than hitting the green in one. Huge mounds with pot bunkers lie in wait behind the green, while a trap on the left will gobble up the errant draw. For obvious reasons, do not be short."
Currently, there is one really nice homeite for sale on #4, click on the picture for information about it. Then call me at 843-455-4523 and let's go take a look.

Give’em HELga!
Today, we celebrated Helga Morrison’ s 23 years at DeBordieu, and wished her well in her retirement!
Helga started working as a courier at DeBordieu in August of 1987, back when the administration offices were located in trailers in the woods. It didn’t take long to discover that Helga had some pretty deep roots in Food and Beverage. She started working in her family’s restaurant when she was 6, in Karlsruher-Durlache, Germany.
Helga came to America in 1965 with her husband who was in the military, and brought with her that classic German accent we’ve all come to know and love. Remind me to tell you the “funnel” story next time we talk…it’s too funny.
One of the things we’ll miss the most about Helga is her work ethic. She has served faithfully as a wait-person, bartender, in special events and banquets, and she's done her fair share of training as well. No job was too big, or too small for Miss Helga. Whether at DeBordieu’s Oceanfront Beach Club, Golf Clubhouse, Grill Room, or Turn Room, Helga’s smile and personality added special character and charm. She will certainly be missed.

YO DOG (leg)!
DeBordieu Golf Hole #3, par 4
“On this tough dogleg right hole, you are faced with a very tight drive through the trees. Try to stay left off the tee, avoiding the large bunker looming to the right of the landing area. Beginning 75 yards out from the green and running all the way on the left lies an enormous sand trap. Other bunkers lurk on the right. Golfers will also want to steer clear of the mounds and hillocks to the right of the green.”

DeBordieu Golf Hole #2,
“This straightaway par four is one of the best real birdie opportunities that the Dyes will provide you, so make the most of it. Hit your best drive up the middle, over the hill in front of you. There is water on the right, so aim at the middle of the fairway. The undulating green, ringed by a beautiful copse of pines and oaks, is guarded by a huge bunker on the right with a stately live oak in the back corner. (Should you find yourself there with a wedge in hand, at least you’ll be in the shade!)” (copy courtesy of the DeBordieu Club website.)


The Fairway Oaks Villa pictured here borders Hole #2. Please note that it's price has just been reduced to $595,000. Click on the picture for details and a virtual tour.

DeBordieu, Hole #1, par 4
“Golf course architects Pete and P.B. Dye will quickly introduce you to the beauty and challenge of this course on the first hole, a slight dogleg to the right. A thin ribbon of water runs in front of the trees and the right is flanked by a series of mounds and hillocks reminiscent of Scotland’s rolling courses. Knock your drive straight up the middle, avoiding the mounds, for a faded shot will leave you with a blind approach to the green. The elevated green is receptive to a well-placed iron shot. A yawning depression to the green’s left will scoop up any misdirected ball and seriously test your wedge game.” (copy courtesy of the DeBordieu Club website.)

Buyer Beware….here comes Spring!
Phil did not see his shadow today, which means we only have 6 more weeks of winter. For the value conscious home buyer looking to secure the most property for the least amount of moola, that means there are 6 MORE WEEKS to get the BEST DEALS of the year!
When those daffodils start poking up, they bring with them the promise that Spring is right around the corner. They also bring to sellers the promise of a whole new crop of buyers, which means they are likely to dig in more and negotiate less.
Typically, Spring is the most active selling season for DeBordieu Colony, and every other neighborhood in the Pawleys Island, South Carolina area.
So let’s get to it! Write or call me today and I will be happy to send you a selection of properties that meet your search parameters. Or, browse the website at www.DeBordieu.com and let me know what properties look attractive to you.
P.S. I am so glad that Phil doesn’t live in DeBordieu. As I sit writing this, it is sunny and 73 degrees outside!
