What club did you use?" we
often ask of another when he plays
a perfect shot, and in so doing let
ourselves in for another lacins.
Choice of clubs is an individual.
matter. For example, in the recent
British Open Bobby Jones drove 300
yards on several holes. If you used
a driver would you expect to get
the same distance? But the main
trouble is choosing clubs, ba sed on
your opponents shot, is with irons.

The amateur Immediately tried to
emulate him. A fine hook followed.
So it goes. Every golfer has his
own range and his own particular
swing. Even if he doesn't try to
initiate his opponent he will get
himself into difficulties by his own
methods.
Suppose, as in the illustration,
he comes to a 165 yarder on a
strange course. He takes out a No.

over. SO he changes to a No. 4 and
hits hard. Trouble follows. Why?
Merely because he is swinging out
of his groove. Ever notice how
you'll take a nice practice swing.

wrong on the shot. Matter of
pressing.
Or suppose you have a brassie

over, so YOU decided to pIay soft
and easy. You are bound to slice.
Watch your pro. He never plays
soft. He hits firm and on line. He
may go over. but the chances are
he'll be about right. His skill, in
addition 10 command of shots. rests
in never under or over-clubbing.
