Playing Tips

Account for elevation changes—club up on long uphill approaches and club down on downhill shots to avoid misjudged distances.

Adjust approach and putting speed depending on the green type because bentgrass holes typically run smoother and faster while zoysia (korai) holes tend to be firmer and slower.

The hilly, tree-lined layout favors accuracy off the tee over pure distance, so prioritize placement to secure better angles into greens.

Wind can be variable on exposed ridges between the Abukuma and Nasu ranges, so check conditions from elevated tees and alter trajectory and club choice accordingly.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Local Weather Patterns

Fukushima experiences four distinct seasons with cold, often snowy winters, warm and humid summers with occasional typhoons, a cool and changeable spring, and clear, crisp autumns, so expect snow cover in winter and variable wind and rain in summer.

Best Season to Play

Late spring through autumn (roughly May–October) is best, with May–June and September–October offering mild temperatures and clear views while winter months are often snowy and unsuitable for play.
