Kagoshima Garden Golf Club

Hilly course. An 18-hole course utilizing natural hills with an elevation of 300 meters. The fairways feature gentle undulations and enhance strategic play with a Japanese garden-inspired design incorporating natural stones. As the overall distance is not too long, club selection greatly influences the score. Both the outward and inward nines start with long holes, allowing players to hit freely due to the open layout. The third hole requires a tee shot over a valley, making distance control difficult for the second shot as it is an uphill lie. The ninth hole also requires a tee shot over a valley, but the landing area is spacious, allowing players to hit with confidence. The inward nine features the famous long 18th hole. A creek runs in the middle of the fairway and in front of the green, forcing players to choose between aiming for a two-on in two shots or laying up in front.
