Playing Tips

The layout is mostly flat with gentle rises, so prioritize accuracy off the tee over pure distance to avoid the narrower fairway sections.

Short intervals between holes help maintain rhythm and reduce fatigue, which you can use to concentrate on precise wedge play into the Bentgrass greens.

Greens are moderately fast and receptive, so focus on distance control and try to leave approach shots below the hole when possible.

Wind in the Niigata countryside can be changeable—check flags frequently and favor controlled shots or an extra club when the breeze picks up.

Soft spikes are recommended and the turf is well maintained, so wear stable footwear to keep your footing for accurate short-game shots.
