We received a warm welcome from the Tanakas who run this well kept and charismatic golf course which has plenty of history. At just a shade over 6,000 yards from the front (regular) tees the main challenge was staying out of the rough and away from the steep banks which held up the ball and made for tough second shots if you weren't accurate off the tee. There was enough elevation to make it interesting without the constant threat of lost balls that is a feature of some more ruggedly mountainous courses in Kochi. When the course was built in the 70s a kind of mono rail carried clubs/golfers around and this is still in evidence as a curiosity though it has been replaced by modern carts. Other unique features included a grandfather clock in the reception area and numerous memorials to the many holes-in-one (and an unlikely Abertross on the par four 14th). I found this course interesting and very scorable and well worth the trip along the winding and scenic coast road.

This was relatively easy planning a tee time and the prices are great. Totally recommend this for a golf outing to Kochi Prefecture.

What happens if your ball strikes another players ball? Golfing Rules, Seriously!

On the course this past weekend, I putt from just off the green and my ball struck my playing partners ball, knocking it closer to the hole.

After a quick giggle, we began to discuss the ruling, 'I'll play from there and its a one-shot penalty for you' my friend said. 'I was off the green' I said, 'Doesn't matter' he said. Right, I said. 'Hang on, and I'll consult the rule book'.

Luckily, I had The R&A's Rules of Golf on my phone (Well worth a download and it's FREE)

Without quoting the book verbatim, there are basically three scenarios which you should be mindful of:

On the Fairway (updated June 14th, 2023) If your ball strikes a fellow player's ball on the fairway by accident, The 9.6 rule comes into affect, meaning If my ball...

What happens if I ground my club in a bunker? The new rules of golf explained

In 2020, the US Golf Association (USGA) and the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews (R&A) made several changes to the rules of golf.

One major change was to the "drop procedure" when a ball is lost or out of bounds. Players are now allowed to drop the ball from shoulder height, rather than knee height, making the process more consistent and less prone to mistakes. Another change was to the rule regarding penalty strokes. Players will no longer be penalized for accidentally moving a ball on the green, such as when marking or lifting it.

Additionally, players are now allowed to repair almost any damage to the course, such as spike marks on the green. The changes also include simplifying the rules for bunkers, allowing players to touch or move loose impediments...
