Kitakyushu Country Club

Kitakyushu Country Club, despite its name, sits in Iizuka city rather than Kitakyushu itself, and has operated since 1969 as a 27-hole facility built from three nines, Bamboo, Pine, and Plum, that combine into full par-72 rounds under the names Bamboo/Pine, Pine/Plum, and Plum/Bamboo. Yardages across the three pairings range from roughly 6,322 to 6,806 yards from the back tees, with the Bamboo/Pine combination playing the longest at a 73.1 rating and 123 slope, while the other two combinations play a touch shorter with a 70.7 rating and 121 slope. Facilities include GPS-equipped golf carts, caddies, club rental, and a driving range, and walking is permitted on the course. Iizuka city has become a genuine multi-course golf hub in northern Fukuoka, also hosting JR Uchino Country Club, Kaho Golf Club, Fukuoka Lakeside Country Club, and Satsuki Golf Club's Ryuo Course at separate addresses, making it a strong base for a multi-day golf trip. The three-nine structure at Kitakyushu Country Club gives repeat visitors a different combination to try on each visit, and the club's more than five decades of operation have built a stable, well-conditioned course across all three nines. Golfers using CoGolfers to plan an Iizuka golf trip can note which combination they intend to play here.
