Scoring Zone strategy for Oginosu

On a typical 400-yard par 4 at Oginosu, the goal should be simple: two controlled shots. You don't need a perfect drive — you need a repeatable position that allows you to play your next shot with confidence.

Oginosu rewards discipline and clear decision-making. Check the daily wind direction as it significantly impacts club selection on the more exposed holes. Spend time on the practice green to adjust to the specific speed and grain common in the Tottori area. Use a rangefinder to account for elevation changes when calculating distances in metres.
