Playing Tips

Wide fairways reward controlled tee shots, but prioritize position over distance because the hilly contours affect approach angles and angles into the green.

Several holes incorporate ponds and the distinctive red-bridge feature, so choose conservative tee shots or layups where water comes into play to avoid big numbers.

Zoysia (kōrai) greens tend to be firmer and slower than bentgrass, so plan for slightly more club on approaches and consider bump-and-run shots around the edges.

Frequent elevation changes mean you should adjust club selection for uphill and downhill shots and rely on the cart navigation for accurate yardages.

Wind can be variable between valley and ridge holes, so check wind direction before each tee and leave a margin for gusts on exposed holes.
