I sliced my ball far to the right and
into a clump of trees.
My lie was about $50 yards from the
flag, and a mighty bad one. l was
right up against a big tree, the roots
of which, sticking up out of the
ground, formed a sort of wall on two
sides of my ball.
Upon taking my stance / found that
the tree totally obscured the green.
So I stepped out and studied the stu
alton closely.
The only chance was to slice my
ball around the tree, But is would
have to describe something between a
quarter and half circle if it were to
reach the green. Incidentally, 1 would
have to lift it over the roots and at
the same time hold it down SO it
wouldn't catch the lower branches of
the tree. And it must be made to
avoid some other trees along the line
of flight.
I used a full swing with a mashie,
and the best shot l ever made with
this club resulted. My ball hit the pin
and stayed within a yard of the cup.
[ went down in a birdie 3 and won the
hole.
