The main danger here is the right hand fairway bunker but that is unlikely to stop most players using there driver off the tee because the fairway is certainly wide enough.
However, if the wind picks up, it is a tricky hole due to the big bank on the right hand side and large drop off on the left.
Hole facts
Name: Larch Gait
Distance: 468 yards
Par: Four
Top tip:Â The drive should be aimed just left of centre
to avoid the fairway bunkers.
Andrew Jowett, Head Professional at Gleneagles Resort, says
This hole needs an accurate drive followed by a good 7 or 8 iron into the green. The green slopes from right-to-left making it difficult for the approach shot to hold the putting surface, particularly with the prevailing wind coming from the right side.
