About This Course

Yuda Kogen Country Club is a highland course located in Iwate Prefecture, offering a mostly flat layout that rewards accurate shots with good scoring opportunities. The front nine features water hazards starting from the 7th hole, with the iconic 8th hole surrounded by ponds near the green. On the back nine, water hazards become a factor again from the 12th hole onward. The challenging 17th hole includes a creek crossing the fairway, requiring careful decision-making based on tee position and wind conditions. The course features bentgrass greens and soft spike-only footwear is required.

Playing Tips

Water hazards appear from the 7th hole on the front nine so prioritize accuracy on approaches rather than trying to chase extra yards.

The 8th hole has ponds surrounding the green so aim for the center of the putting surface and avoid high-risk shots toward tight pin positions.

Water returns from the 12th hole and the 17th features a creek across the fairway, so choose conservative tee shots or lay up when the carry or wind makes crossing risky.

Greens are bentgrass and play fairly true but can be firm, so focus on distance control and read subtle breaks before attacking long putts.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Local Weather Patterns

As a highland course in Iwate the venue tends to be cooler than lowland areas, often breezy in exposed spots, and subject to heavy snowfall and closures in winter.

Best Season to Play

Best from late spring through early autumn (May–October) when the course is fully open, greens are in good condition, and weather is most stable.
