Urbana Country Club of Urbana, Ohio set is known as a 'Dye Original.' What began in 1922 as a golf course design would evolve into a Dye family passion project started by Paul Francis Dye (Pete's father) and advanced to 'completion' by current club resident and his grandson P.B. Dye - an esteemed architect in his own right. Remarkably, the 'Dye Original' course is thought to be the only example of a grandfather-grandson design, with Pete and Alice Dye's son P.B. expanding it from a 9 to 18-hole course - turning heads at its re-opening in 1993. The historic Buckeye state course played host to Jack Nicklaus and Sam Snead's famous match in 1956. Jack recently recounted his memories from that day in which a promising local Ohio amateur was paired with the professional that was larger-than-life.
“Upon my arrival at Urbana, my excitement was stuck somewhere in my throat when I gulped at the hundreds of people gathered to see Sam,” Jack said to Urbana-based sports writer Steve Stout. “I had a rare case of the first-tee jitters, but Sam did his best to put me at ease. He could not have been nicer or more gracious … so much so that his use of ‘Junior’ all day didn’t bother me in the least. He finished by saying “It was a memorable week … I played with Sam Snead, won the Ohio Open and in between, began my love affair with flying.International Circle of Friends is The Dye family's preferred charity focused on the betterment of society in areas, many of which contain Pete and Alice Dye course designs which engrained the family into the communities.
