Hanao Country Club Chiba

Hanao Country Club Chiba is an 18-hole hillside course in Otaki, Chiba Prefecture, Japan, designed with relatively gentle elevation changes throughout. The OUT nine presents a consistent challenge along the left side, where valleys and cliffs define out-of-bounds boundaries on hole after hole, demanding careful shot placement off the tee. The IN nine raises the stakes on the closing stretch — all five of the final holes involve either a pond or a creek, making accuracy with every shot essential to scoring well. Players who can manage water throughout the back nine will find themselves well rewarded.
