Tee up for the Heritage with readers' best stories

The Verizon Heritage golf tournament is just a chip shot away, and The Island Packet wants readers to share their love for Hilton Head Island's very own PGA Tour event.

Tell us your memorable Heritage golf stories. Ever bump into one of the pros? Or have some incredible memories from past tournaments? We want to hear about them.

Show us your great golf photos. Want to show off that shot of you and your friends in your best Heritage attire? Or do you have a picture of dear old Dad giving Junior his first golf lesson? Let us see pictures of you, your children or even your pets enjoying the game of golf.

We'll run your stories and photos in the Lowcountry Life section the week of the tournament, which begins April 16. Send your submissions via mail to P.O. Box 5727, Hilton Head Island, SC 29938; via fax to 843-706-3070; hand-delivered to 10 Buck Island Road, Bluffton; and via e-mail to features@islandpacket.com. The deadline for submissions is noon April 8.
