Hayakita Country Club (South Wing)

Overview: Hayakita Country Club’s South Wing offers a different rhythm from its tournament-focused North Wing. The official club describes an 18-hole course separated by natural larch and Ezo spruce forest, where subtle fairway undulations and creeks make accuracy more important than simply pressing for distance. The current official hole table totals 6,941 yards from the championship tees at par 72. Hirochika Tomizawa is identified as designer, and the routing’s shorter, more finely scaled character gives the shared Hayakita facility a second distinct golfing experience.

History: South Wing is part of Hayakita’s large two-course development on the hills of Abira, overlooking the Yufutsu Plain and the Pacific Ocean. The current club positions the North Wing as the tournament course and the South Wing as the more scenic and nuanced counterpart. The official material does not provide a reliable opening year for this exact wing, so the historical account stays with the documented relationship between the two routings and avoids assigning a date from a different course in the region. The present operating identity and course split are clear.

Did You Know? The South Wing’s own guide shows how it creates risk without relying on length alone. The third hole asks players to choose between a 220-yard water carry and a safer line in front of the hazard. The 13th has a creek in front and a pond behind a short green, while the 18th finishes as a dynamic uphill par five. Together those holes illustrate why the club says the South Wing rewards accuracy and decision-making.
