Playing Tips

Accuracy off the tee is rewarded because many holes have tree-lined, separate fairways so prioritize position over pure distance.

Several holes require carries over ponds or into valleys, so play conservatively when hazards come into play rather than forcing risky shots.

Expect frequent elevation changes and adjust club selection for uphill and downhill approaches to avoid misjudged distances.

Greens are Zoysia (korai), often firm with visible grain, so anticipate slower speeds and be sure to read the grain when putting.

Exposed or ridge-top holes can be windier than sheltered holes, so check conditions and alter club choice or shot shape accordingly.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Local Weather Patterns

The Yamato Highlands experience hot, humid summers with afternoon showers and occasional typhoon influence, mild and stable spring and autumn conditions, and cool winters with possible frost or light snow; the higher elevation also brings slightly cooler temperatures and variable winds on exposed holes.

Best Season to Play

Spring (April–May) and autumn (September–November) are the best seasons for comfortable temperatures, stable weather, and excellent course conditions.
