Playing Tips

The course runs along the river in a straight line, so favor controlled tee shots to keep the ball in play rather than swinging out of control for distance.

There is a long hole over 450 yards where a conservative tee placement and a smart layup will set up the best chance for a par or birdie.

River-side holes can produce cross or gusty breezes—check wind direction before every tee shot and club up or down accordingly.

The greens are Zoysia (highly grassed/高麗) and tend to show grain, so expect subtle breaks and generally slower putt speeds than bentgrass surfaces.

You return to the clubhouse after the first nine and play the back nine from different tees, so use the break to reassess yardages and course conditions.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Local Weather Patterns

Kanto (Tochigi) has four distinct seasons: warm, humid summers with occasional afternoon showers and thunderstorms, cool and dry autumns with crisp winds, mild springs with possible winds and occasional rain, and cold winters with frost; riverside holes often experience local breezes that pick up in the afternoon.

Best Season to Play

Spring and autumn are ideal for comfortable temperatures and stable conditions, while early morning spring rounds can offer calm winds and clear views and autumn provides crisp air and pleasant playing conditions.
