As one of the Lowcountry's premier public courses which
was selected by Golf Digest as one of the "top ten new public courses
of 1992", Old South has truly become a favorite of golfers visiting
the Hilton Head area. Featuring towering live oaks, rolling Scottish
terrain and magnificent views from island greens, the course was designed
by award-winning course architect Clyde Johnston. Old South Golf Links
is a tribute to man working within nature's fragile guidelines. Not
only did Johnston preserve the natural beauty of the land, but his design
allows golfers to experience up close the uniqueness of the site, its
natural amenities and spectacular views. As Johnston himself so aptly
put it, "The variety of the setting from forest to open pasture to tidal
salt marsh provided an opportunity to vary the design elements and strategy
of play."
