## About the course

Sohbu Country Club's Kita (North) Course is the relaxed little sibling of one of Chiba's most storied golf clubs. Opened in 1987 in Inzai, beside the club's Inba Course, it is a compact nine-hole, par-35 layout by local master designer Seizo Tomisawa, the architect behind the championship Sohbu Course next door. Set among mature trees, it packs a surprising variety of holes into a short loop and is played on foot with pull carts, with bent and korai greens to putt on.

### A tree-lined practice loop that rewards every club in the bag, _at your own easy pace._

Players can go round once, twice or three times, and same-day and afternoon starts are possible, which makes the Kita Course a flexible choice for beginners, families or anyone wanting a quick round on the way to or from Narita Airport. There is no restaurant, but snacks are sold and you are welcome to bring your own picnic. The club bus runs from Chiba New Town Chuo Station (about 15 minutes) and from Toyo-Katsutadai Station by reservation; ride it to the Inba Course and walk about 100 metres to the first tee.
