About the Course
Bear's Paw Japan Country Club is nestled in central Japan, seamlessly blending natural terrain with strategic design throughout its forested layout. The course takes full advantage of undulating mountain topography, weaving through dense pine forests where each hole presents distinct visual perspectives and tactical challenges. Narrow fairways and strategically positioned bunkers demand precision in shot-making, while fast, contoured greens test both short game finesse and putting touch. The course's distinct four-season environment adds rich seasonal character—cherry blossoms in spring, lush greenery in summer, fiery autumn foliage, and snow-draped winter landscapes transform each round into a unique dialogue with nature's ever-changing canvas.
