The Dolphin Head Golf Club in Hilton Head Plantation is celebrating its Silver Anniversary by offering 25 memberships at $25 each!  You do not have to be a Hilton Head Plantation property owner to have a membership.  Individuals, families, residents and non-residents of Hilton Head Island may purchase these Silver Anniversary non-equity memberships and enjoy the Club’s private golf and entire guest and social privileges.  This is a significant savings on the usual cost of membership (also available) of $3,000 application fee plus $2,500 for an equity certificate.  

The Dolphin Head course was designed by Gary Player and Ron Kirby.  The course opened in 1975 and was the first in Hilton Head Plantation.  The members purchased the club in 1983, built the clubhouse in 1986 and expanded it in 1998.  In recent years the course has received renovations to over 50 sand bunkers and to four putting greens under the supervision of golf architect Clyde Johnson. The clubhouse has a pro shop, men’s and women’s locker rooms, dining room and  the Manager’s office.  The dining room is open for lunch daily for dinner five evenings per month.  Social events are held throughout the year.

The course has six tees ranging from 2,180 to 3,307 yards with ratings and slopes of red 71.7/122, white 70.5/125 and blue 71.6/134.   The course covers some beautiful real estate near Port Royal Sound where majestic trees and area birds are abundant.   The mounds that surround the slightly elevated greens are a Dolphin Head ’trademark’.  There are water hazards on thirteen holes and the course has some of the longest par three holes in the area.

There is a full golf program of competitive and social events as well as golf instruction for men, women and juniors.  These include both a nine and eighteen hole women’s leagues and weekly men’s day.  There is   a variety of stoke, team and match play competitions, a flighted club championship, married couples championship and an annual two-day member-guest tournament. 

Dolphin Head Golf Club has 310 total memberships.  A $25 membership fee for private golf is a great way to celebrate a Silver Anniversary.  For more details, contact Kirsty Kumm, Dolphin Head Golf Club Manager at 843-681-5550, X222.
