Playing Tips

Expect significant elevation changes on many holes, so club selection should account for uphill and downhill yardage differences.

Fairways are relatively narrow so prioritize accuracy off the tee and consider using a fairway wood or long iron rather than a driver on tighter tees.

Bentgrass greens are well maintained and can be receptive but subtle in break, so focus on landing approaches below the hole and dialing in speed on putts.

Check local wind and weather before your round as valley gusts can affect ball flight and cause wind to swirl on exposed holes.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Local Weather Patterns

Located in the Aso mountain area, weather can change quickly with cool mornings, frequent valley winds and occasional fog; summers are warm but can be interrupted by typhoons and autumn brings more stable conditions.

Best Season to Play

Spring (March–May) and autumn (September–November) offer the mildest temperatures and the clearest views, while typhoon season in late summer can bring heavy rain and cancellations.
