Hilton Head Golf Vacations

Scratch Golf Company was formed in 1988, for the sole purpose of providing well-conditioned and professionally managed facilities for the golfing public s enjoyment. With a wealth of successful experiences in other types of business, the general partners of Scratch Golf had the vision to approach this new endeavor just as any other business venture. Their approach, from the beginning, was to run golf courses as businesses, recognizing that a satisfactory return on investment was essential to sustained growth, even if that meant abandoning some of the more traditional golf club management philosophies. The company s first step into the golfing industry began in August 1988, when it purchased over 316 acres of prime land just off Hilton Head Island, S.C. Shortly thereafter, construction began on what later became known as Hilton Head National Golf Club. The 18-hole Gary Player signature course opened for play and quickly established itself as one of Hilton Head s best. It was named a USA Today Golf Atlas Top Fifty Course and a Coastal Carolina Golf Map Top Twenty Layout . The company has opened golf courses in Fort Lauderdale and Orlando, Fla., and is headquartered in Bluffton, S.C.
