five feet of the pin and sunk his
putt for a birdie four.
For the average and. as well. as
for the star player" says Walter
Hagen, 81 believe one of the biggest
and most common mistakes made is
gripping too tightly when one is In
the rough or in the sand. The
thought seems to be that one must
grip tight to kill the ball. that 1t
Is all a matter then of physical
power. But 1t isn't. believe bet
ter results will be obtained with a
looser grip, for then one gets in bet
ter wrist action and is more likely
to get the club head to the ball
ahead of the hands. Then. too,
many golfers quit on the down
stroke. They lunge back and have
nothing left for the finai punch. In
the sand they must be sure their
feet are firmly planted and that
they are not fixed and rigid. Their
bodies must be relaxed and the back
swing should never be hurried. But
to Eet this effect they must calm
themselves down mentally and for
get every detail except hitting that
,.all out. Once you are in trouble
there is no good in fretting about
It. It's too. late for that"
The main difference between a
star pro or amateur and an 80 or
IS man Is largely in recovering
from trouble and iron play. Few
fine iron players have any great
worry about scoring. They then
have the main Foundation Of the
game, for II Is this stroke that
shoots for the green.
The Washington herald., 1922-04-26

What, gentle or not so gentle
duffer. would you say was the great
est difference between a dub and
star.
II you are In doubt, at least one
part. of the idea came to us at
Pinehurst recently while the North
and South open was under way.
And II is this-the amazing abil-
ity of the star to emerge from seri-
Gus trouble without serious dam
age.
I There Is no question that this Is
the proper answer.
There were two cases of Kirk
wood and Hagen. who drove deep
into the underground of pine
thickets, where the hall could only
BE played out .left-handed with
long carries over stately pine trees
In each case they secured a par g.
where the average golfer whose
game is between IS and ITO would
have needed at least seven strokes.
And possibly more.
Rare ability to recover from i'm
pendig disaster saved them three
strokes on single holes.
Then again there is the. case Of
George Kerrigan playing to the 525
yard seventeenth. After good
drive he put his second shot into
q sand trap go yards from the
green. You know what the aver
age player around 100 would have
taken under those conditions. JUST
out In three. short Of the green In
four. on in five and then two puts
for q seven. Maybe. But young
Kerrigan waded In with q spoon,
