Can Visitors Rent Golf Clubs in Japan? Prices & How It Works

Quick answer

Yes. You do not need to bring clubs to Japan. Many courses rent sets at the clubhouse, and Elite Golf Japan can have a full set delivered to your course for ¥10,700–¥14,550, round-trip delivery included for most of Japan (¥5,522 extra for Hokkaido and Okinawa). We offer right- and left-handed sets for men and women. Arrange it when you book: payment must be received and confirmed by noon Japan time, five business days before you play.

How do I arrange rental clubs as a foreign visitor?

1. Choose a set. Browse the full lineup with photos and prices on our rental page, or tell us your height and dominant hand and we suggest one.

2. Request it with your tee time. One request covers the round and the clubs. Payment for the set must be received and confirmed by 12:00 noon Japan time, five business days before the date you play.

3. Play and leave the clubs. The set is waiting at the course. After your round you leave it there, and it is collected for return.

Every delivered set includes

Full set (driver, fairway woods, irons, wedges, putter)
Caddie bag
Round-trip delivery to and from your course

What else can I rent or arrange at a Japanese course?

Shoes. Many clubhouses rent shoes, but large sizes can be scarce. We can arrange shoes on request, including sizes up to 30 cm.

Caddies. Some courses offer caddies for an additional fee, and a few require one. If you need English support from a caddie, ask when you book. Caddie fees are settled at the course.

Balls and tees. These are bought, not rented. Many course pro shops sell them, or bring your own.
