Playing Tips

With a total length of only 2,275 yards, accurate mid‑iron and wedge play matters more than raw distance.

The hilly layout means club selection on uphill and downhill shots is important—consider taking one more club for uphill and one less for downhill.

Zoysia (korai) greens can show noticeable grain and subtle breaks, so read putts carefully and expect moderate green speeds.

Several holes demand precise approach shots rather than power, so aiming for the center of the green is often the safest strategy.
