Subject: Advice on first trip to Hilton Head
I am going to be taking my first trip to Hilton Head, SC next week for
a full week of golf and am looking for some advice from anyone thats
gone to that area.

I am about a 12 handicap. My wife does Ok on shorter courses and we
are going with a couple that is somewhat new to golf.

So I am interested in any shorter courses, also sort of open courses
that are a bit longer but not really tight with wider fairways.

Also I would like to play a round or two on one of the championship
courses by myself. Just wondering which would are most recommended/

And if anyone knows any other hidden gems within driving range please
pass them along/

Thank you in advance

South Carolina?

Bring a book with you.
It will freak out the natives.

I vacationed here for 20 years before retiring here lasy year

On Island: Any of the Port Royal courses - one is pretty tight but all are
short and don't get much play. Also, try the Robert Trent Jones at Palmetto
Dunes.

Off Island (Bluffton): Try Old South or Island West

Really Off Island: The Legend at Paris Island - really great course -
cheap - right on the ine basic training facility - bring ID

Everybody knows Harbourtown - for $350 - not a great deal though. Try
Palmetto Hall (Arthur Hills), Ocean (at Sea Pines) or Crescent Point for a
real test

Enjoy !!
