Playing Tips

The course is mostly flat with strategically placed hazards, so prioritize accuracy off the tee to leave easier approach shots rather than trying to overpower holes.

Coastal winds from the Sea of Japan can be changeable and affect club selection, so check wind direction on each tee and plan conservatively.

Bentgrass greens are generally true and receptive, so focus on hitting the right level and be prepared to read subtle breaks when putting.

At about 6,549 yards, the layout rewards smart course management and shot placement more than raw distance, so consider layups when hazards come into play.

Bring and wear soft spikes as recommended and expect damp conditions after coastal fog or rain.
