The pedigree
Gene Hamm
A Traditional layout that opened in 1968 and plays to a par of 72 over 6,886 yards.
The test
Slope 126
126 slope across 6,886 yards, which is the sort of card most of the group can post a real number on.
The greens
Bermuda
Putting surfaces are Bermuda. The practice ground carries a chipping green, a driving range and a golf school, so the speed is no surprise on the first green.
The verdict
3.7 out of 5
Across 90 reviews left by golfers who booked through us, 58% scored Hackler Course at Coastal Carolina University four stars or better. None of it is edited and none of it is paid for.
The course
The golf at Hackler Course at Coastal Carolina University
Hackler is a par 72 laid out over 18 holes with Bermuda greens and a maximum of 6,886 yards. The slope of 126 is modest by Myrtle Beach standards, and the course carries an easy difficulty rating, so the yardage is more about room to swing than about punishment.
Practice facilities are the standout detail. Alongside the driving range there is a chipping green and a golf school on site, which is more instruction infrastructure than most courses in the area offer. Groups with a beginner or a returning player have somewhere useful to spend an hour before or after the round.
Review evidence is thin. Only five reviews are on file, averaging 3.2, which is not enough to draw a reliable conclusion about conditioning or service either way. Treat the rating as unsettled rather than as a verdict, and judge the course on the numbers: par 72, 6,886 yards, slope 126, Bermuda greens, and a full practice setup at 107 Citadel Drive.

Course was in pretty good shape, and everyone enjoyed themselves. They would definitely play again.
Beautiful course
Injury couldn’t play
Greens looked terrible but rolled good. Fairways were not good. Patchy at best.
Interesting layout but expected the course to be in better shape.
The fairways were in poor condition, good layout, would kot golf there again.
