With the Lanely Dell on the left and the fine prospect in front the Ochil Hills and Craig Rossie prominent in the picture- you are once again impressed by the beauty of the landscape. The view from the Tappit Hen fairway is notably fine, and the hole itself most attractive. Here again study of the plan is helpful. With the Muckle Rig crossing at right angles, and its numerous bunkers massed like an opposing army in ancient battle array, one must conquer the heights above the plain to get a glimpse of the flag 395 yards from the tee. Anything under four for the conqueror brings him into the category of golfers whose play deserves respect. A long drive is required to carry the ridge. It is 160 yards distant. Then a good brassie shot should put the ball on the green. With an adverse wind it pays to play to the left, as it opens the hole. If there be a following wind a long shot over the guide post will leave you within a mashie or light iron shot of the green, where one putt might occasionally satisfy even though it may have to be a long one. Such play will beat "the bogey man "because the green is flat compared with the others, and presents less difficulty to the "putter" on the true line. The Tappit Hen green is verily a "green of velvet," 6 feet below the level of the tee, notwithstanding that it is the highest on the course. It lies 596 feet above the level of the sea, nestling in front of the fir crested Tappit Hen Hill which, being 614 feet above the level of the sea, is the point of highest altitude on the golf course. From this green all the way to the home green the play is on the descent.
