Playing Tips

The hilly layout rewards accurate tee shots—prioritize keeping the ball in play to avoid tricky uneven lies and blocked approaches.

Winds off Lake Shinji can be variable and affect club selection, so check flags and be ready to add or subtract a club on exposed holes.

Greens are a mix of bentgrass and zoysia, so expect truer, faster reads in cool seasons and slightly slower, grain-influenced putts in summer.

Many approaches involve elevation changes (uphill or downhill) so adjust yardage for the lie and don’t forget roll on downhill shots.

Soft spikes are required—bring proper shoes and expect morning dew or softer turf after rain which will affect spin and run.

The course has a coastal-inland climate with regular breezes from Lake Shinji, a rainy season in June–July, possible typhoons in late summer, generally clear and mild autumns ideal for sunsets, and cool winters with occasional cold snaps but little heavy coastal snowfall.

Late spring (April–May) and autumn (September–November) offer the most comfortable temperatures, stable weather, and the clearest views of Lake Shinji and its sunsets.
