Playing Tips

At about 6,880 yards with a par 72, the course rewards distance—longer hitters can gain an advantage on many par 4s and par 5s.

The course features both Bentgrass and Zoysia greens, so expect faster, truer reads on Bent and firmer, slower surfaces on Zoysia—adjust approach spin and putt speed accordingly.

Favor controlled, accurate tee shots over overly aggressive drives to keep yourself in position for approach shots on these mid-to-long length holes.

Wind can be changeable in the Kansai region, so pay attention to flag direction and breeze when choosing clubs, especially on longer holes.

Assess each green carefully before putting since the two green types can produce different break and speed characteristics from hole to hole.
