player who had put his mashie on

bottom OF the clubs blade 90. as he
said. ut would slide through the turf
without biting. into It." OF course,
this fellow was standing on his ear
as the saying goes. with such 3
theory as that. No good golfer
would ever commit such blunder
but many really good golfers dc
change their clubs in other ways.
The fact that club performs at
all after the player has shortened
I. or lightened its head is merely q
testimonial to the players skill. He
has, without really knowing 1t. i'm.
posed q handicap upon himself, but
still plays a good game.
II you feed that . club does not

It is one Of the oddities of golf
that short players should think they
need shorter clubs, and that the high
boy needs more length on his shafts
This belief is doubiy odd because ex
actly the reverse is true, where any
difference at all In the club lengths
is required.
This condition il true because. as
the player should always under
stand, the ball Ia hit hard not In
proportion to the distance the club
mead travels before 1t hits the ball
It being assumed here that the
flight Of the clubhead Is even
rhythmic, and without jerk.
Thus 10 will be seen Immediately
that the short player who shortens
his club lengths because he is short
robs the clubhead Of any possible
chance to travel its greatest distance
before 1t strikes the ball.
On the other hand, the player of
very tall stature sends the club
head It's full distance through the
air because Of his height, III he
Iengthened the shaft Il would have
Q tendency to make his playing
inaccurate. He might well expert
ment with one Of tho shorter
Lengths.
Another thing all players should
turn over in their minds before they
undertake to improve upon a club Is
this: Golf club makers have In
vested tens Of thousands of dollars
In designing. experimenting with
and manufacturing golf clubs.
When you buy the club you buy
at the same time. all this expert
ence, and the safest investment II
the world is the investment In ex
perience. The club maker knows
what he is doing when he puts Z
shaft forty-three inches long on thu
driver. he makes for you.
II you buy this club, then take
two inches off it's handle. you kich

II for, granted, however. that the
men who have made big businesses

a lot more about the kind OF clut
I should use than ] could possibly
know myself. 80 whenever l have

another I simply go TO the store ant
