| The green and its surrounding give
you a very unique appearance. You should avoid deep bunkers on the left and in
front of the green. |
| |
|
|
| The red pines on this both sides of the
green are beautiful, and it just looks like the hole is wrapped in the woods.
A wide but shallow double-tiered green is elevated and slopes from the back to
the front. |
| |
|
|
| A slight dogleg to the left. Pot bunkers
are waiting on the left and in front of the elevated green. |
|
|
|
| A long and tough par 5 as it slopes
up. Beautiful red pines line both sides of this hole. Bunkers which guard the
green are deep. |
| |
|
| |
|
| Artificially beautiful par 4. The
hole has the excellent contrast of a lake which spreads in front of the green,
and the white birches surrounding it. The tee shot is a magnificent downhill towards
the narrow fairway separated by trees. The second shot is over the lake. The beautiful
view of Mt. Fuji is breathtaking which finally comes into view when you are putting
on the green. |
| |
|
| |
|
| An over the lake par 3 as you hit toward
the grand Mt. Fuji. Mt. Fuji is also beautifully reflected on the lake in front
of the green. The green is double-tiered with left & right and fast from the
back. Bunkers in front and at back of the green often come into play. |
| |
|
| A long par 4 with a slight dogleg
to the left. The second shot is slightly downhill to hit onto a beautiful green
with a blind lake on the front left of the green. Bunkers guard the green well
to make your second shot require accuracy. |
| |
|
| A right dogleg with OB along the right
side. The second shot is slight uphill. |
| |
|
| A flat par 4. The second shot needs
to clear a lake. Green has a gentle uphill undulation. |
|
|
|
| A beautiful par 3. Though it is long
and difficult. A wide and narrow green is elevated, and a bunker in the right
front of the green is in play. Red pines on both sides of green edges give the
peculiar sight of this hole. |
| |
|
| A right dogleg with a lot of fairway
bunkers, and green side bunkers. A huge bunker as deep as 1.5 times of your height,
located on the right hand side of the green, should be avoided. Putts are difficult
because the undulating green slopes from the back to the front. |
| |
|
| The final hole is a very beautiful
par 5. Although a long hitter can hit the green in 2 shots, The second shot is
over a lake onto the green whose front edge touches the lake, So, if you are short
even if slightly, your ball disappear is the water, and if you are long, it is
caught by a bunker at the back of the green where having birdie is difficult.
If you decided to lay up, there are different ways how to hit the second shot
depending on the player’s skill. As it closer to the green, the fairway is narrower.
You use a fairway wood to a narrow target or to choose a safety with a short iron.
A green looks like a floating island as the water almost completely surround the
green. |
