Inuyama Country Club (Bent)

Overview: Inuyama Country Club is a member-based hill course in the wooded landscape south of Inuyama, with the surrounding terrain giving the 18-hole round a clear sense of place. The official club specification lists par 72 and 6,791 yards for the longer K bent-green configuration used for this profile. The routing mixes substantial par fives with demanding long par fours, while changes in lie and the presence of bunkers and water make position important even when a fairway looks generous. The result is a traditional Japanese country-club test that rewards a controlled ball flight and accurate distance into the putting surfaces.

History: The club opened on 6 November 1965 and credits Takeharu Hasegawa with the design. Its corporate history records a provisional operation beginning on the 6th hole in November 1964, followed by the full opening ceremony once all 18 holes were ready the following year. The property later added its two-green system in stages, with work beginning in 1984 and completion recorded in 1998. That timeline explains why the current club describes one course with two maintained bent-green routes rather than two separate 18-hole layouts.

Did You Know? Inuyama's two official bent-green totals are only 14 yards apart: the K route is 6,791 yards and the B route is 6,777. The difference is small on paper but can change approach-club selection on several holes, which is why the green configuration is retained in the directory name.
