Playing Tips

Account for variable highland winds when choosing clubs, as gusts and crosswinds can change shot distances significantly during a round.

Bentgrass greens here tend to be smooth and true, so prioritize distance control and careful reads to avoid three‑putts.

At a moderate length of about 6,556 yards and with GPS-equipped riding carts for navigation, play conservatively off the tee and favor center‑of‑fairway targets to keep misses manageable.

Use the GPS yardage information and plan for quick weather shifts (mist or wind) that can affect visibility and club selection; wear soft spikes only as required by the course.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Local Weather Patterns

As a highland course in the Aso caldera, expect cooler temperatures than the lowlands, frequent and changeable winds (often stronger in the afternoon), morning mist or fog at times, a rainy season in early summer, and occasional snow in winter.

Best Season to Play

Late spring (April–May) and autumn (September–November) offer the most pleasant conditions with mild temperatures, lower rainfall and good visibility; avoid the rainy season and peak typhoon months.
