Playing Tips

The course is relatively short so prioritize accuracy and smart course management over trying to overpower holes with distance.

The 13th hole demands a confident carry of about 160 yards over a valley, so select a club that ensures the carry rather than chasing yardage.

Many holes feature strategic bunkers and water hazards—play conservative tee placements to keep approach shots straightforward.

Greens are Zoysia (korai) and can show grain and moderate speed, so factor in grain direction and aim to leave putts on favorable slopes.
