Being played this week at the beautiful Harbour Town Golf Links on Hilton Head Island. The course is actually open to the public year-round, but I cant play a round there till I get a pair of bermuda shorts in my clothing collections since thats a part of their dress code. The course is a relatively short compared to others on the tour, but its one that requires good shot making. The signature hole is the 18th, where players often hit their approach shot over a sound using the red and white lighthouse that is beyond the hole is an aiming marker. GAYBR is the defending champ is he set a tournament record going -20 last year. The winner's share is $1,026,000.

Geography is so weird.

When did Hilton Head become an island?

Looking at the wiki its always been an island. In fact its a weird island because the north half of the island is a sea island (a typical island I guess), while the southern half is a sea barrier island (like the outer banks of North Carolina or the Dauphin Island area of Alabama). Cool, now I just learned something today and now I can shut my brain off for the rest of the day, thanks P!

Thank you -mmm- for the explanation of Hilton Head Island. After hearing the name all this time I just never heard that it was an actual island.

A barrier island is an island just off a coast it would seem to me that there would have to be a bridge to get to the island but I could have that wrong.

The only way onto Hilton Head other than by plane or boat is a bridge albeit a short one. Probably less than a mile in length and it spans the Intercoastal Waterway. The island itself is not very large, only about 10miles long and 5 miles wide.

Boy stupid me yesterday of course it would take a bridge to get out to an island.

Now that can't always be the case. I would think there is not a bridge from the West Coast to Hawaii.
