ture OF a man measuring a missed
two-foot putt is full of meaning.
These facts being as they are, let
us first try 10 perfect our putting.
for il is a part of the game. 1t is
not the whole thing, however, for
golf is a big game played over a
long stretch of country with many
big masculine strokes. and the little
performances on the putting green
is only a part Of it.
For that reason 1 have thought
the unfair advantage given so fire.
quently to the putter might be rem
edied by decreasing the size of the
green's. If they were made, say, 20
feet square COT course no really
square lines are seen on a modern
golf coursel, ths second shot. the
"cut" and push shots would increase
in proportion. and the long, 60-foOt
snaky puts from the edge of the
green would disappear. This would
be calculated 10 bring about a more
nearly fair condition than the en-
largement of the cup and would not
destroy the ancient ideas of the
game
1t would demand extra care of the
ground in front of the green, but
would cut down the expense of the
green's. an expense that has been
growing rapidly in proportion TO the
generosity of their size. / love the
old game, just as it was - handed
down. and 1 hope some time 10 be
beaten by a golfer who does not win
his match on the putting green.
Clock golf is interesting, SO is crO-
quet, but neither call in play the big
strokes of the game.
