should say the biggest class of
golfers in the United States were
those between 95 and los. I am re-
ferring here to scores, not ages
But there Is also a big class be-
tween IS and 80. those who are pretty
good but who in the main ought to
be much better.
There are two sections of this class
that we can't do much for. One is
the section that says that a golf game
for any business man and therefore
doesn't care to try for any improve
ment.
The other section is that short but
straight lineup that thru advancing
years or physical weakness can't get
much distance, and so is badly handi-
capped when it comes to low scoring
Reasons for the Rut.
The big majority of those between
SIS and 80 are in a rut. And most of
the fault here is due to their playing
almost entirely in four-ball matches,
with a trifle on the side.
Under these conditions they are not
willing to do any experimenting to
seek any improvement that might cost
a match.
They know they will hardly break
an IS, playing as they are, but they
also figure an Sc ought to wiR.
So they kesp on making the same
old mistake day after day-nOt bad
mistakes that lead to much trouble,
but mistakes that keep them steadily
one stroke over par.
1t would be a great thins II these
golfers would only keep an accurate
check on the shots they miss each
round
They can then soon find where their
main weakness is and can spend at
least part of their time correcting
these main faults.
For many of these $3.50 golfers, the
chip shot can't be over stressed
They are not quite getting on the
green in two, and so unless they are
PLAYING this short approach well they
have no chance to slip in bunch OF
Is and lower their average
They should remember in this chip
shot there is no funny turn of the
wrists. They must let the wrists work
naturally, but there mustn't be too
much wrist.
1t is much like a long putt The
body and feet must be quiet and
steady, almost fixed. and there should
be no feel or pivoting or turning. !
The left hand holds The club for
steadying purposes, with the flick done
with the right. The feel of distance
comes from the right hand.
The idea here is to pinch the ball
and ground together. Let the club
head go on thru a short distance.
Don't chop or stab. as so many do.

west Kansas hasn't always been the
best Benson says, but this year snow
and rains have turned gloom into
happiness. He says there are some
fields of wheat looking thin, but con-
tinued moisture the harvest will be
generous. Some fields of wheat, it is
believed, will turn out IS bushels an

nicely. Stock is in fine condition.

pin or a short distance beyond it. 1t
is a great thing to make habit of
being past the pin on this shot. Try
it for a while and watch the big i'm
provement that comes.
Other Suggestions.
My advice to this class is not to
count the score. Play each hole in
turn for its value.
Frequently, these golfers get a good
start and then begin playing every
They get afraid to hit the ball bold
". as they are in an over-cautious
mental mood.
As you get to each tee. work for
your par. and if you get away to a
fair tee shot don't be afraid to go for
the pin. Make a habit of this and
cut out the old habit of playing too
There are many IN this class also
who ruin good rounds thru shots
wasted in traps.
The best advice I can give them is
to take a half an hour off now and
then. drop six or eight practice balls
in a bunker and work on this weak
ness. Bunker play isn't hard. 1t is
find that you can come out of bunkerS
you will soon lose your fear of them,
and a little practice will dc this for
you.
bunker; be sure of your stance, and
hit thru boldly. Don't get in the
habit of quitting on this shot. Pick
out a spot just back of the ball and
then slash into this spot, letting the
club head cut thru and under, not
stopping in the sand.
There IS no reason why golfers
who average between IS and 80
shouldn't get Nown around so. Most
of these are held and handicapped by
just a few bad habits that can be
corrected IL they will go to work on
their main faults. 1t is, of course, i'm
portant that this section should be
putting well IL the score is to be re-
duced. If poor putting is mainly re-
sponsibIe, as it sometimes is. the next
and only move left is to work out
standard system of putting. keeping
the body still and hitting the putt
firmly for the cup. Once again this
comes to a matter Of practice, and
not quite so much fOur-ball play. Ger
tainly no man is going to improve his
game doing the same old mistakes
over and over again in a four-ban
match where he is thinking of moth
ing but the score.
1t isn't hard to get out a little early.
or to take an extra hour for practice
in place of giving all your time TO
matches where you are afraid to risk
any experiments or to work out any
changes in your old game.
