HOLE-BY-HOLE

1st Hole

Par 4 · 373

Pro’s Tip:
This is a classic opening par four that provides all of the qualities found in a major championship golf course. Two tall pines guard the right, while vast bunkers penalize shots hit too far left. A missed approach shot will exercise the healthiest short game.

Tee 1: 373

Tee 2: 346

Tee 3: 346

Tee 4: 300

Tee 5: 268

2nd Hole

Par 4 · 312

Pro’s Tip:
A short par four with an expansive beach bunker guarding the right lagoon. This hole rewards the bold player, while Old Man Par fears the player who lays back and plays the percentages.

Tee 1: 312

Tee 2: 295

Tee 3: 295

Tee 4: 253

Tee 5: 222

3rd Hole

Par 4 · 427

Pro’s Tip:
This hole measures 464 yards, the longest of the opening par fours. An absence of hazards will not simplify navigating your ball to the green. This straight-away hole puts a premium on both length and accuracy.

Tee 1: 427

Tee 2: 409

Tee 3: 374

Tee 4: 361

Tee 5: 326

4th Hole

Par 5 · 529

Pro’s Tip:
If carefully planned, the first par five can provide you with a birdie. The subtleties of the fourth hole can be deceiving. Don’t let the beauty of this hole distract you from the task at hand.

Tee 1: 529

Tee 2: 505

Tee 3: 505

Tee 4: 476

Tee 5: 430

5th Hole

Par 3 · 430

Pro’s Tip:
With the rustic beauty of the 200-year-old oak trees surrounding this 195-yard par three, the fifth hole takes on a character of its own. Don’t let your guard down here.

Tee 1: 430

Tee 2: 185

Tee 3: 172

Tee 4: 157

Tee 5: 148

6th Hole

Par 4 · 430

Pro’s Tip:
Accuracy is at a premium on the sixth tee. At 447 yards, this par four will call for your best effort. Keep your tee shot to the right to afford yourself the best angle into a well-guarded green.

Tee 1: 430

Tee 2: 403

Tee 3: 370

Tee 4: 353

Tee 5: 309

7th Hole

Par 5 · 504

Pro’s Tip:
One of Hilton Head’s most challenging par fives. A wide landing area beckons for a long drive. However, water guards the green and the player who risks making it in two shots may be reaching for another ball.

Tee 1: 504

Tee 2: 493

Tee 3: 473

Tee 4: 468

Tee 5: 390

8th Hole

Par 3 · 145

Pro’s Tip:
Don’t let the yardage fool you here. At 149 yards, this par three requires an accurate tee shot. A two-tiered bunker protects the right while water looms large, short and to the left.

Tee 1: 145

Tee 2: 130

Tee 3: 130

Tee 4: 123

Tee 5: 91

9th Hole

Par 4 · 411

Pro’s Tip:
A 432-yard par four, dogleg left invites the player to cut the corner and head for home. A strategically placed bunker in the landing area will make even the best players think twice. Upon reaching the green you will need a sound-putting stroke to get down in two.

Tee 1: 411

Tee 2: 384

Tee 3: 365

Tee 4: 338

Tee 5: 287

10th Hole

Par 4 · 356

Pro’s Tip:
Your work has just begun when you reach the tenth hole. This 400-yard par four is set up by the placement of your tee shot. A large fairway bunker will direct shots to the left. Once beyond the hazard, a short to medium iron may help capture that ever-elusive birdie.

Tee 1: 356

Tee 2: 349

Tee 3: 322

Tee 4: 275

Tee 5: 188

11th Hole

Par 3 · 188

Pro’s Tip:
This spectacular par three requires a shot that is all carry over a stunning savannah to the green. Club selection becomes a mystery as you step up to this intimidating tee shot.

Tee 1: 188

Tee 2: 165

Tee 3: 142

Tee 4: 125

Tee 5: 90

12th Hole

Par 5 · 555

Pro’s Tip:
This monster par five will have its way with the longest of hitters. Strategically placed hazards lie in wait of your errant golf shots on this sweeping dogleg left. The patient golfer will be rewarded while enjoying the beauty of the hole.

Tee 1: 555

Tee 2: 544

Tee 3: 495

Tee 4: 482

Tee 5: 402

13th Hole

Par 4 · 385

Pro’s Tip:
A dogleg right par four of 419 yards lures the player to cut the corner. Make the most of this chance for a birdie, it may be your last.

Tee 1: 385

Tee 2: 371

Tee 3: 366

Tee 4: 319

Tee 5: 276

14th Hole

Par 5 · 505

Pro’s Tip:
Dramatic is the only way to describe our fourteenth hole. At 500 yards this par five seems to be a great chance to make a birdie. A hazardous lagoon defines the entire right side of the fairway. Its alluring qualities conceal the danger as the lagoon swings in front and to the left of the putting surface. Cautious play will offer the greatest opportunity for success.

Tee 1: 505

Tee 2: 490

Tee 3: 470

Tee 4: 455

Tee 5: 376

15th Hole

Par 4 · 331

Pro’s Tip:
The fifteenth hole proves once again that length is not the main ingredient for a good test of golf. This classic design measures 343 yards from the championship tees. The landing area is protected on all sides by the waste areas and slender pines. A double fairway proves numerous options for play. The purity of this hole is what golf is all about.

Tee 1: 331

Tee 2: 317

Tee 3: 317

Tee 4: 282

Tee 5: 228

16th Hole

Par 4 · 331

Pro’s Tip:
The sixteenth hole is a 426 yard par four. A strong accurate tee shot is key if you are aiming for a par on this hole. A slightly elevated green will divert your ball away from the hole with any missed shot.

Tee 1: 331

Tee 2: 317

Tee 3: 317

Tee 4: 282

Tee 5: 228

17th Hole

Par 3 · 194

Pro’s Tip:
Spectacular is a fitting description for the seventeenth hole. This 215-yard par three is framed by water and a beach bunker on the right and an exquisite old oak on the left. One cannot help but be moved by the beauty of this hole. A successful par on this hole will leave you with a true sense of satisfaction.

Tee 1: 194

Tee 2: 171

Tee 3: 155

Tee 4: 124

Tee 5: 83

18th Hole

Par 4 · 194

Pro’s Tip:
The grand finale is a 441-yard par four dogleg to the right. This test of golf dares you to stray from the center of the fairway. The large oak that guards the left side of the green searches for your final shot of the day, while a large sand bunker awaits those who steer to the right.

Tee 1: 194

Tee 2: 171

Tee 3: 155

Tee 4: 124

Tee 5: 83
