A Gary Player design, it was Player\u2019s first course in the Hilton Head area and was open for play in 1974, making it Hilton Head Plantation\u2019s first golf course. The Gary Player design offers players of all skill levels an exceptional and challenging golf experience. The course has matured into an Island favorite. Dolphin Head Golf Club is a unique golf course with two very different nine holes, giving golfers a taste of both the common tree lined fairways found on Hilton Head and the open headlands near the coastline. Player wanted to capture the natural beauty of the area and protect the many wetlands and old growth trees that have been here for hundreds of years, so he used a very unobtrusive approach to his construction. What transpired was a beautiful layout with eighteen distinctively different holes, capturing the natural settings that create the Hilton Head Island ambiance. While you are playing your round of golf you may see alligators sunning on the banks, or you might spot an egret or hawk, or even an eagle swooping down to snatch a fish out of one of the many ponds, and on occasion you could see a family of wild turkeys scampering across a fairway.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS is an invitation-only qualifier for the <a href=\"http:\/\/pkb.shotstat.com\/Tour\/TournamentDetail.aspx?TID=2560\">PKBGT INVITATIONAL<\/a> in November.
