Scoring Zone strategy for Shizugawa Country Club
On a typical 400-yard par 4 at Shizugawa Country Club, 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.
Shizugawa Country Club rewards discipline and clear decision-making. Take an extra club when playing uphill and consider choke-down shots for better control on uneven lies.
