Tales of a WaySide Tee
By GRANTLAND RICE

when playing over a trap. This. IS
simple enough. The bunker fear has
trained his mind, not upon the bal
but upon the trap ahead. He IS think
ing 98 per cent about that trap. The
result is that the brain directs the eye
away from the ball to the bunker
whereas. il he had had an open sho'
down the fairway with no trouble
ahead he could have focused his con-
centration upon the ball only.
This lack of concentration, so neces,
sary in golf, is broken up by the dread
Of getting into trouble. The dutfer
has visions Of flying sand and burning
niblick. Of one shot after another with
the ball still nesting in the sanded
grotto of despair.
But suppose the golfer knew, through
practice, that even if he thumped the
ball into the trap he probably would
lose only one stroke-that he might
even play out close enough for putt
With this dread of disaster gone the
tendency to look up would be removed
with a vast improvement in play,
We have seen any number of golfers
who could play with fine effect to A
green that wasn't trapped. With an
open shot TO play they would hit the
ball properly end firmly, knowing that
even if they failed they might still be
able to chip one dead to the cup. But
facing q deep trap was another matter
They still had the shot TO play, or
rather, the required one, but visions
of three or four wasted strokes in the
sand shattered their mental balance
and brought about woe.
