To test your short game the Needle E'e affords all that is necessary. It is a plateau preen 140 yards distant from the tee and about 6 feet above it. There are three hunkers on the face of the plateau which, if you are troubled with nerves, loom up large. It takes a sure hand and a true eye to clear them, or circumvent them, but their preence seme makes the hole doubly worth playing. Before reaching them, however, you have to pass between the trees which suggest the Needle E'e, and in endeavouring to clear first the trees and then the bunkers you must see to it that you do not overdrive the green and get in the gorse beyond which is synonymous with serious trouble. Braid sums up the effort here by advising that the shot should be a mashie shot, and that, it you ha\e "the honour" and put your ball on the green, you can await with equanimity anything your opponent may attempt. The Needle E'e has been threaded in two, but if you get near the pin in two and get down in three you do well, for that is on equality with bogey.
