the British players. y free. loose
swing in strong wind is Il dangerous
swing. 1t is apt to overhalance the
player. and the ball produced is more
apt to go off the course than the bail
which comes from compact well
knit stroke. That is the reason the
leading British amateurs. as a class.
have developed compact type of
stroke. They probably get less dis
tance than the Americans but are apt
10 be nearer the center of the course.
Evans Uses Compact stroke.
Chick Evans is the nearest approach
To the British in this matter of the
ton. His back stroke is never hur-
ried. 1t is never taken beyond the
horizontal, and when club head meets
ball there is that sharp rap and dis
tinct hit which denotes the Well
timed stroke. Evans does sot get ex-
traordinary distance. He gets COM
Portable distance, and always splits
the middle, but he has not a reputa-
ton as a long hitter. Probably his
remarkable success, extending over a
period of thirteen years of strenuous
competition in national and sectional
events. is due to this overcoming Of
the effort for distance as much as any
other factor.
Jess Sweetser. the amateur cham
pion. is another titleho!der who has
profited by the short stroke. SweetSer
two years ago. was a long swinSer Of
the Jones type, but early this year he
cut down his stroke to the horizontal.
He found himself more often down
the fairway. and won the champion
ship of the United States by his aC-
curacy from tee to green.

T"iicy. unlike the majority OF his
British compatriots, is a long, free
SWins"r, his style more closely re-
Semhiing that of the Americans than
that OF any topnotch British player.

Long Swing Hns Its Faults.
The American style some golf ex-

parts OF the swing that ii one eie-

short swing. it is pointed out. has the
reverse effect OF not involving So
much effort and being less liable to
be thrown out of gear.
American golf courses, however
have made possible the American
style of game, and who will say that
IT is not the equal and possibly the
superior of the British game Lack
of trapping and lack of trouble for
wild tee shots have made possible
this free. loose swing that means
distance off the tee. hut ofttimes also
means a ball off the course. High

circumstances as nearly ideal as can
be imagined.
But our British cousins, who play
largely on courses laid out near the
sea. where the wind blows constantly
and where rain falls more frequently
than here. have been forced to cut
down their swing to more compact

comes largely from the belief that

There is another factor in the de-

win that California game. The play
ers have read some comment from

former years, but they have been no
