Countless numbers Of golf matches
have been lost by players who beat
themselves, rather than that they
were beaten by their opponents,
and that goes for important tourna-
nnent matches more frequently than
many may suspect. And the turn
comes about from trying to do too
much under q severe handicap.
have time and time again seen
players. whose handicaps ran into
two figures, try to bring off shots
that even the most expert would
hate to have to make. Naturally
enough. 80 times out Of 100 they
fail.
Using q wood club out Of the
rough, trying to clip q ball mp
cleanly from q sand trap 80 as
to stop it dead to the hole,
choosing q wood club fer o
cuppy lie that clearly called for
an iron, these are some Of the
tricks that one sees.
Now, the point is this. One bad
shot made from fair conditions may
and probably will mean an extra
stroke on the hole, at least for the
only fair player.
But it ought not to mean three
or four strokes, which it very often
does. II the player will stop to
reason this way. it may be clear
to him.
Unless conditions are almost Inn
possible, q reasonably good shot viii
get him back to where he had

For instance. q fairly long shot
that found dense heavy rough,
where he had hoped for about equal
distance on the fairway, ought to
mean no more than that niblick
shot will put him there on the fair
way in one more. And he ought
to be sure that he gets that.
But an over.ambitious effOrr
in the rough win probably leave
him stilI in the rough, and he
has i'm effect lost two shots In.
stead Of one, and this additional
loss Is moro often than not 9
strong incentive toward still
more heroic stuff, and thereby
hangs the tale Of most Of the
S's 9's and los.
Some shots go wrong for all Of
us. The expert viii have fewer do
30, of course, and also he will be
able to save more from the wreck
age than the weaker player.
But it is an important lesson that
all must learn in golf, that when a
shot finds trouble, the first thing
to keep in mind il not to let the
mistake cost any more than is
necessary, and generally only one
stroke will be necessary, il the
player ID not over-ambitious.
