Now add to these fundamentals
stance, grip, slice, spin, ETC., and
you have proposition which as q
sport Ii at once replete with almost
amazing qualifications for thrills
that are incident to expert execu.
tien in play. In all other sports
there is but one kind Of club used,
while in golf each Of the clubs con.
stitutes a game in itself, though
few players realize this fact force
fully enough to better their games
very much thereby.
Each club in golf has q distinct
purpose and each club will perform
stunts which the other clubs will
not do. 1t Is when the player has
mastered, to q degree, all his clubs
that ne really becomes a scratch
man, and in the degree that he mas.
tiers all his clubs, not one or two Of
them, does he become a really ex.
pert shooter on the links. Because
none of US can ever master all those
clubs absolutely, the game never
ceases to abound in thrills, nor
does custom stale the sport.
In all other sports there are
impossible situations Of play. For
instance, In baseball the batsman
cannot hit the pitched ball unless
Il crosses somewhere near the
plate. The fielder cannot arrest
the driven balI II IL is beyond his
limits Of speed and reach. The
fielder cannot pun them DOWN
when Babe Ruth wallOps them
to pastures well beyond the garden
walls. But IN golf every cOndi-
ton Of the ball, every situation
with which the player Is con-
fronted, must be played Out--and
can be played out successfully IL
the player can work out the com.
binatiOn Of club, stance and swing
for the shot.
The game, then, is more than a
sport-it Is a. crossword puzzle as
well as a pastime and many and
many is the crossword have
heard it call forth. And many kind
ones, too. Perhaps its astonishing
growth in popularity is due to the
fact that we like puzzles. But be-
cause of the various departments
Of the game we see on links q
curious development Of elIill.
One man steps up the the tee
and sends. out a perfectly executed
and far-fying drive. "A fine play
err" you think. But If You watched
his game from then on you would
see a fine example Of miserable
golf until the player again stepped
up to the tee.

his bag. Plainly, you could observe,
all his golf had been concentrated
