Nabari South CC ☆ Follow

Nabari South Country Club is a 72-par, 18-hole course located in Nabari, Mie Prefecture, Japan. The layout spans a total of 6,846 yards from the back tees, with a par 72 configuration that challenges golfers through a relatively flat terrain featuring only a 50-meter elevation change. The course is designed to offer strategic variety, with bunkers and trees placed to create distinct challenges on every hole. The front nine begins with a gentle downhill par-4 first hole, where long hitters must navigate a left-side bunker and out-of-bounds area while avoiding a water hazard on the right. The layout continues with a mix of par-4s and par-5s, including a demanding 548-yard par-5 ninth hole that plays as a left dogleg. This hole requires a safe approach from the right side to avoid bunkers guarding the front of the green. The back nine mirrors this strategic complexity, featuring another long par-5 at the 13th hole, which stretches to 551 yards from the back tees. With handicap indices distributed across the holes, the course rewards accurate shot-making and strategic decision-making over raw power. The flat nature of the terrain allows for consistent ball flight, but the strategic placement of hazards ensures that every hole presents a unique test. The course maintains a balance between accessibility for higher-handicap players and sufficient challenge for low-handicap golfers, with yardage variations of over 1,500 yards between the back and lady tees.
