A couple of weeks ago right after Bynn graduated (well, they don’t really hold anyone back here, so technically the term would be ‘moved on’) from elementary school we got the chance to hit the links.
I’ve been several times here, and we did play together some time ago while on a trip to Guam for his first time ever on a course, but this was the first time on a course in Japan.
The weather was great though we barely beat the rain home. While we were out, it held up pretty well although the wind was a little sharp at times.
We went to Mie prefecture to the Suzuka Country Club and played the Higashi (East) course. It’s not a really long course at 6,347 yards, and no water-locked greens, but still challenging enough. The fairways were pretty wide but you were in trouble if you got out of the fairway with all the trees, bunkers, and creeks and ponds along the sides.
Bynn managed a bogey on one hole, and hit the ball fairly well, so we were able to enjoy the day. All in all, it was great. I can’t wait till Ahn can go too.
Here are a few photos –
