Wicked Stick Links, is a Public, 18 hole golf course located in Surfside Beach, South Carolina.
Wicked Sticks first opened for play in 1995. The course was designed by Clyde Johntson and John Daly. Wicked Sticks is a John Daly Signature Course.
The layout is an open course featuring expansive dunes fields, large sand waste areas with gorse-like vegetation, deep pot bunkers, and strategically placed water hazards. A par 72, the course measures 6507 yards from the championship tees, with a select number of “Daly Signature Tees” offering additional length and difficulty.
One of the unique features of Wicked Stick Golf Links is the absence of fairway bunkers. Wicked Stick is truly a “Grip It and Rip It” Myrtle Beach golf course.

Fairways are wide open to let you use driver at will. And if you should put one in an adjoining fairway, you can get back pretty easily. That said, it is still a fun course to play. The layout is not as challenging as some other area courses but there are certainly challenging holes to be played here. Course was in very good shape when I played it. Worth a drive to play it more than once.

Not as intimidating as I expected but it was in nice condition. I would recommend this course for average players looking for a casual fun round.

The strongest feature of this course is the price. It sits out in the open, is quite unprotected, so is very susceptible to windy conditions, but it does have interesting holes, is a reasonable course for players whose golf skills are in the 20+ handicap range, offering a challenge, yet very few "gifts." A golfer would be hard pressed to find a better course for the dollar than this one and the condition of the course ranks as high as any in the area. Even the better players might want to include this as kind of a "breather" course to prepare for one with a higher degree of difficulty and be happy that they "really got their money's worth" here.

The course was in great shape. The wind conditions were terrible, but overall it was a great day.

Good place to find your game. About 14 of the holes are quite wide open. If you play decently, you can score here. The course is not going to eat your game alive. YOu can manage your way around this course and usually score fairly well, comparatively speaking. Only real problem is that some parallel holes get pretty hairy with balls occasionally flying all over the place and people hitting the wrong fairways. Other than that, conditions are quite good. A bit of a factory, they put groups out rapid fire and it can get slow sometimes in terms of pace of play. Also, very annoying "charity" pitch on one of the par 3's. Some of them get downright insulting and I don't wanna hear their shpiel. It's an intrusion.

was a little wet but there had just been a storm. It did not drain good in some spots but the greens did well for the most part
