The remedy for under-clubhing ap-

Than really is reces sary. and after

The length of :hc back-swing natu-
rally has a great deal 10 do with the
length OF flight Of the bah, but stand
ard,zation Of the back-SWing for Ger
tain distances. TO be obtained through
constant practice at these distances,
will fix in the players mind the
!argth Of back-swinS necessary. This
S. particularly true in masiie play.
where the stroke usually is half

land on the green, with sufficient

standing this factor. the mashie gen
