Dan Maples overshadows bigger name golf architects along the Myrtle Beach Grand Strand
CONWAY, S.C. -- Casual golfers might not recognize the name Dan Maples, but savvy golfers know the underrated architect belongs to a respected family in golf.
Maples designed several highly regarded courses with his father, Ellis Maples, before launching a successful career of his own in the 1980s. Maples courses have become synonymous with playable, commonsense golf without gimmicks. Golf Digest ranks seven Dan Maples courses among its top 60 along the Grand Strand, which is more than any other architect.
The Grand Strand is home to more than 90 golf courses stretching from Bolivia, N.C., to Pawleys Island, S.C. A strong five-pack by Maples sits just beyond the North Carolina border: Sandpiper Bay Golf & Country Club, Oyster Bay Golf Links , the Maples Course at Sea Trail Golf Resort & Convention Center and the East Course and West Course at The Pearl .
A trio owned by Mystical Golf -- The Witch Golf Club , The Wizard Golf Club and Man O' War Golf Club -- are more centrally located to Myrtle Beach proper, while Willbrook Plantation Golf Club and The Heritage Club anchor the southern end in Pawleys Island. Golf Digest considers The Heritage Club as Maples' finest work, but truth be told, they're all pretty good.

Reviews for "The Storytelling Power of AC Origins Curse of the Pharaohs DLC"
1. John - 2/5 stars - I was really disappointed with "AC Origins: Curse of the Pharaohs". The expansion felt more like a chore than an enjoyable gameplay experience. The story was lackluster and felt disconnected from the main game. The new areas to explore were visually stunning, but the repetitive quests and lack of depth made them feel empty. Overall, I found the expansion to be underwhelming and not worth the investment.
2. Sarah - 2/5 stars - As a fan of the Assassin's Creed series, I was really excited for "AC Origins: Curse of the Pharaohs". However, the expansion fell short of my expectations. The gameplay felt repetitive and the quests were uninspired. The addition of new abilities and weapons was a nice touch, but it wasn't enough to salvage the experience. The story also didn't captivate me and I found it difficult to stay engaged. Overall, I was left feeling bored and unimpressed with this expansion.
3. Michael - 3/5 stars - While "AC Origins: Curse of the Pharaohs" had its moments, it failed to live up to the standard set by the main game. The beautiful Egyptian landscape was a highlight, but the gameplay felt repetitive and the story was lacking in depth. The new enemies and boss battles were challenging, but I couldn't help but feel that it was missing something. The expansion tried to deliver a unique and memorable experience, but it fell short in execution. It's an okay addition for existing fans, but I wouldn't recommend it as a standalone purchase.
