## About the course

Ibara Golf Club lies in the rural hills of Ibara city in western Okayama Prefecture, about 19 km from Kamogata IC on the Sanyo Expressway. Opened in July 1993 and developed by Mitsubishi Estate, it is an 18-hole, par-72 layout stretching to 7,131 yards from the back tees. The club calls it a flat, generous course that works with the natural lie of the land, with two greens on every hole — one bent, one Bermuda — so it can be enjoyed by casual golfers yet still test single-digit players looking for a strategic round.

### Roomy, relaxed and rarely crowded, _with the seasons changing around every hole._

The appeal is a peaceful, unhurried day of golf with room to swing freely, a 16-bay, 250-yard range for warming up and a bath to finish. Ibara is known as a denim-making town, and the course fits naturally into a trip through Okayama — combine it with the Korakuen garden and Okayama Castle, or the canal-side old merchant quarter of Kurashiki, about an hour away. Driving is the practical way to get there from Okayama Station, and solo golfers can book a tee time online.
