He and Taylor and Braid were
the masters of British golf and

day we wrote of Taylor and his fiat
swing. Let us now consider Var
don's swing-the perfection OF
style and form in upright swing
ing.
When he played in America he
had a great deal of right hand in
his upswing and did not allow the
clubhead to lead. Practically all
his weight came on his right foot
at the start, for there was a slight
sway of his body. But when half
way up his weight began following
the clubhead forward over his
shoulder, so that by the time he
reached the top his left big toe was
carrying good deal of it. At the
top his hands We're cooked, the
wrist not bent under as Taylor's

In other words, Vardon is a two
handed swinger, as are all upright
swingers. Those who use the left
entirely, like Taylor, are invariably
fat swingers. And as each is the
