Takino Country Club - Geihinkan Course

Takino Country Club's Geihinkan Course opened in the Shobudani district of Kato city in 2008, one of the more recently built layouts in Hyogo's densely packed Banshu golf corridor, stretching to 6,876 yards from the back tees. 'Geihinkan,' meaning guest house or state guest hall, gives the course a name suggesting a premium, hospitality-focused experience distinct from the club's separately located Yachiyo Course elsewhere in the prefecture. Kato hosts one of the highest concentrations of golf clubs anywhere in Hyogo, and Takino's 2008 construction date makes it a genuinely modern addition to that already crowded landscape, arriving with considerably more contemporary shaping and conditioning standards than the area's many 1970s and 1980s-era neighbors. The two Takino Country Club courses operate at entirely separate addresses within different parts of the prefecture, giving the club a genuinely spread-out footprint rather than a single concentrated property. The Kato area's sheer density of golf facilities makes it easy to combine a round here with several other nearby clubs. Golfers seeking one of Hyogo's rare 21st-century course openings through CoGolfers can consider Takino Country Club's Geihinkan Course specifically for its modern design.
