Tarao Country Club

Tarao Country Club is a 36-hole golf club in Koka, Shiga Prefecture, Japan.

The scorecard here is for its East Course, which plays to a par of 72 over roughly 7,220 yards — a long course by Japanese standards, rewarding accurate ball-striking. The outward nine measures 3,598 yards to a par of 36 and the inward nine 3,622 yards to a par of 36, which makes the two halves near enough the same length.

The card is four par threes, ten par fours, and four par fives. The longest hole is the 14th at 603 yards, and the shortest is the 5th at 177 yards.

The course plays year-round; winter mornings can start under a frost delay.
