About This Course

Yatsushiro Golf Club is a rare 18-hole course that can be enjoyed solo, located in Kumamoto Prefecture. This hilly course is mostly flat but features some narrow sections and shorter distances, encouraging accurate, directional play rather than power hitting. Many second shots are slightly downhill, increasing the challenge of hitting greens surrounded by well-placed bunkers. With minimal green undulation, strategic play focusing on safe bogey saves often leads to better scores, especially for experienced players. The climate is mild year-round, making it a comfortable course to play in both summer and winter. Soft spikes are recommended.

Playing Tips

Accuracy over power: with several narrow stretches and generally shorter holes, prioritize directional control off the tee rather than trying to bomb drives.

Pay attention to downhill second shots and club selection as many approaches play slightly down, which can carry shots farther than expected.

Greens are relatively flat with minimal undulation, so focus on speed control rather than reading big breaks.

Bunkers around the greens are well positioned, so favor conservative approaches to avoid sand and play to safe angles when possible.

Soft spikes recommended and the course is easy to walk, making it suitable for solo play and steady pacing.
