Playing Tips

Wide fairways invite aggressive tee shots, so you can attack many par-4s but reward accuracy rather than pure distance.

Cedar groves separate holes — stray drives and approach shots can be heavily penalized, so favour controlled shots when trees threaten the line.

Hilly terrain causes frequent elevation changes, so adjust club selection for uphill and downhill shots and allow extra roll on downhill lies.

Bentgrass greens can be slick in dry weather, so pay attention to pin position and the subtle slopes when planning approach shots and putts.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Akita has cold, snowy winters and a short, mild summer with a rainy season in early summer; wind and sudden weather changes can occur in shoulder seasons.

Best Season to Play

Late spring (May–June) and early autumn (September–October) offer the most pleasant conditions — avoid the heavy snow of winter and the peak of the rainy season.
