Playing Tips

At 7,087 yards Noble Wood is a long test, so balance distance with accuracy off the tee rather than always trying to hit driver.

The course’s forest-style layout funnels holes between trees, making controlled tee shots and staying in the fairway a priority to avoid difficult recovery lies.

Bentgrass greens typically roll true—carefully read subtle breaks and expect faster speeds in dry conditions.

Bring and wear soft-spiked shoes for traction and comfort on tree-lined fairways and around the greens.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Local Weather Patterns

Niigata experiences a rainy season in June and humid summers, generally calm and pleasant autumns, and cold winters with heavy snowfall influenced by winds from the Sea of Japan, so winter play is often limited.

Best Season to Play

Late spring through early autumn (roughly May–October) offers the most comfortable conditions, with late spring and autumn being especially pleasant for course condition and temperatures.
