Playing Tips

With a total yardage just over 1,000 yards and par 28, accuracy and a reliable short game are far more important than distance on this compact course.

The gently rolling, hilly terrain means club selection for uphill and downhill shots is crucial—take one more club for uphill approaches and one less for downhill.

Two green types (bentgrass and zoysia) produce noticeably different speeds, so check which green you’re on and adjust putting pace accordingly.

The American-style, compact routing favors conservative play and placement; aim to keep approach shots on the correct tiers rather than attacking pins aggressively.

Light to moderate breezes are common on the outskirts of Takasaki, so monitor the flag and compensate for crosswinds on exposed holes.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Local Weather Patterns

Gunma is inland so expect hot, humid summers with a rainy season in June and possible afternoon thunderstorms, cool clear autumns, and cold winters with occasional snow, while the Haruna outskirts can be slightly cooler and breezier than central Takasaki.

Best Season to Play

Spring (April–May) and autumn (September–November) are the best times to play for mild temperatures, stable weather, and pleasant surroundings, while the rainy season in June and the hot peak of summer are less ideal and winters can bring snow.
