Play Mystical for Me

published by Mississauga Business Times    Feb. 04, 2013

I’ve been going to Myrtle Beach for over 25 years. I love the Carolinas and I particularly like this part of them. In early October I was off to see The Wizard as part of a three-day tournament arranged by Buffalo Communications. Along with The Witch and Man O’ War, The Wizard is one of three courses, all designed by renowned architect Dan Maples, that make up the appropriately named Mystical Golf. Much of Mystical Golf’s customer friendly atmosphere can be attributed to its owner, Claude Pardue. He certainly understands how critical service is in these uncertain economic times.

Golf in Myrtle Beach, with a Mystical touch

published by Metro New York    Jan. 07, 2013

After a recent visit, Mystical Golf's trifecta of Myrtle Beach courses — The Witch, Man O'War and The Wizard — now holds the pole position on my golf vacation radar. Why? The three Dan Maples' designs are flat-out superb, the maintenance is country club-good and the price is off-the-charts reasonable — especially the stay-and-play packages. Though Man O'War and The Wizard are adjacent and The Witch is 10 minutes away, each course is a golf universe unto itself. The Witch is Myrtle Beach golf at its finest with many tricks up her devious sleeve as 500 acres of tranquil cypress groves and wetlands provide plenty of hazards due to Mother Nature. Strategy is rewarded as the par-71, 6,702-yard layout is an SAT test of the ancient game. Muscular Man O'War is soothed by a 100-acre lake on its edge. This is a study in water management as H2O touches every hole The par-72, 6,967-yard Man O'War intrigues with its spectacular (and rare) back-to-back island greens on 13 and 14.

published by Back9Network    Dec. 17, 2012

Claude Pardue, president and CEO of Myrtle Beach-based Mystical Golf, owns and operates three courses in the world's public-course capital - the Witch, Wizard and Man O' War. Post-college, Pardue worked in his father's Burlington, N.C., insurance/financial services agency for nine years. Not interested in inheriting the reins upon his dad's retirement, Pardue and then-partner Richard Lee purchased Hyland Hills, a somewhat tired course in Southern Pine, in 1984, when its gross total sales were just north of $550,000. When they sold Hyland Hills in 1999 its total sales were $2.1 million. Meanwhile, the business and marketing genius had expanded his business to Myrtle Beach, and, since each course opened, the Witch still averages about 44,000 annual rounds, and Wizard and Man O' War about 42,000. They are thriving despite the recession thanks to Pardue's insistence on providing customers with the region's best bang for their buck.
