Playing Tips

Favor accuracy off the tee because the course's tree-lined fairways and forest setting penalize wayward drives.

Check the wind, particularly on exposed holes, as Pacific-influenced breezes in eastern Hokkaido can change club selection quickly.

Approach shots require precise distance control since many greens are framed by trees and natural contours.

Bentgrass greens roll true but vary with conditions, tending to be firmer and faster in dry summer weather and softer after rain.

Bring layers and be prepared for cooler temperatures and sudden weather changes, especially in the morning and late afternoon.

The Akan/Kushiro area has relatively cool summers, frequent breezes and occasional fog, long snowy winters, and a relatively short, changeable golf season in spring and autumn.
