About This Course

Royal Ship Sapporo Golf Club is a hilly 18-hole course located on an elevated site overlooking Ishikari Bay in Hokkaido. The layout weaves through multiple small streams, offering a mix of narrow and open sections thoughtfully designed for ride-on carts, with generally flat fairways for comfortable play. Wind can be a factor due to its exposed location, adding an extra challenge to scoring. The course supports self-play with distance markers placed at strategic points, while the gently contoured Bentgrass greens reward accurate shots aimed at the center. This course provides a balanced test in a scenic setting.

Playing Tips

Play conservatively off the tee because several holes run along small streams and narrow corridors where a layup often pays off.

Because fairways are generally flat and cart-friendly, prioritize placement over distance to set up comfortable mid-iron approaches.

Wind from Ishikari Bay can be strong and changeable, so adjust club selection and ball flight accordingly on exposed holes.

Bentgrass greens are gently contoured, so aiming for the center and avoiding aggressive pin-chasing will reduce three-putt risks.

Use the course's distance markers to manage approach risk and avoid running past greens where slopes or run-offs may catch errant shots.
