other players of merit who advocate
the open stance.
George Duncan, James Braid, Harry
NardOn and most of the best players in
this country are stanch hackers of the
square stance.
TN REGARD TO the position Of
l. the ball. should say that it
should he well within the reach of
the player.
TNIE player could still be able to reach
l. the ball were It placed further. but
by having It well within the reach a
| more comfortable swing will result.
| There IS Il general rule which can be
followed with more or less safety re-
garding the distance one should stand
from the ball and those who are not
quite sure of this feature of their game
might benefit by trying it.
Lay the end of the shaft against the
! knee, which is slightly bent and the
ball should be placed against the face
of the club. In this way the player
| should be able to make his stroke both
comfortably and accurately.
Three Inches 10 Right
TIlE position of the ball in relation
l. to the feet is another point over
| which there is much discussion. In
| fact, there is no one stroke in golf on
which all authorities are agreed, al
| though thCrc>>hrc general principles
which all tho leading teachers respect.
In my case place the bail in n line
about three inches to the right of the

stance. Of which think there ART

and the slightly open.
While | prefer the square stance in

suggest that it Is the best for all golf
crs. However. do truthfully believe
that far better results can be obtained
