Firethorn Golf Club in Lincoln, Nebraska represents Pete Dye's only design in the state, a private facility that opened in the late 1990s on rolling terrain west of the city. The course occupies land that transitions from relatively flat agricultural ground to more varied topography, giving Dye the opportunity to incorporate elevation changes and natural contours into his routing. The property includes wooded areas and open stretches that reflect the Nebraska landscape, with native grasses and strategic bunkering characteristic of Dye's design philosophy. The layout features many of Dye's signature elements: railroad ties framing bunkers and water hazards, forced carries over wetlands, and greens with pronounced undulation and false fronts. The course plays from multiple tee sets across a range of yardages, with strategic options that reward thoughtful course management over pure distance. Several holes incorporate risk-reward decisions around water features, while others use the property's elevation to create downhill or uphill approaches that test club selection and trajectory control. Firethorn serves as the home course for a private membership and hosts regional amateur competitions. The club maintains a traditional private club atmosphere with dining facilities and practice areas that support member play and competitive events. For golfers in the Lincoln area and across Nebraska, the course represents a rare opportunity to experience Pete Dye's design work in a region where his courses are otherwise absent.
