But this year the golf committee of

As pointed out in my article
two days ago, the leading golfers
stand pretty we'll over the ball for
iron shots. For the short pitches
wish mashie, mashie-niblick and
spade. mashie, clubs which have
shorter shafts than your No. and
irons and your midiron and cleek,
the stars get right over the ball, as
Jim Barnes is doing in the sketch
of him playing his mashie.
Jim gets right over the ball pur-
posely for this short pitch. and his
feet are closer together. This shot
needs little body pivot to carry it
off. 1t is not a long swing in order
to get distance. For long hits one
spreads his feet for the purpose OF
bracing his body as he pivots and
hits with all his power. On pitch
the idea is accuracy-a ball that
goes for the pin. The less body ac-
ton the better chance of hitting
the ball on such a line. All of
which is depicted in the two
sketches of Barnes. At the top
with the wood his feet are farther
apart and the body pivoted more
than when he is at the top for his
mashie shot. Note. too, that Barnes
goes back only three-fourths as far
for hisp itch shot as for his wood.
Reason. not so much power needed.
He's after direction. not distance.
To insure his pitch sticking to
the green. Barnes tries to and does
play his pitches with elevation
The higher he hits them the more
certain it is they will stick. as they
drop directly down on the green
without run. Keep over the ball
for a pitch, and let the club head
open so it will fly high.

who think that because Tommy
Armour holds the national
open title he should forthwith
proceed to wade through every tour
nament he enters. AS other men win
events. in which the champion is en-
tered, the amazement of these people
increases, for they cannot see how
any man who is good enough to win
the national should not keep on win
ming.
Few Of them realize that champion
ship golf, in these days of the most
intense competition, is like anything
else of big league championship nature,
q matter of being right at the right
time; Of feeling that keenness and
sense OF touch that often means the
difference between n winner and a
loser Nor do they recall how Tommy
Armour had pointed for more than a
month for the national open title tilt,
practicing daily over his home course
and Burning Tree as he had never
practiced before. with one thought in
mind, to win the open. That he sue
ceeded was due as much to those days
of practice, drilling himself in a con-
slant arc of swing. and an accuracy
of hit, as it was to anything he did
at OakmOnt. For golf competition
in the big time today is fierce and
keen, and no man can win unless
he is right with that fine edge of CON
fidence which comes alone from
practice.
Probably if Armour entered but four
or five tournaments a year he might
win them all, or a large part of them,
provided they We're we'll scattered. He
could practice and point for each one.
But this is Aromur's championship
year, and it is strictly up to him to
reap the golden harvest while he may.
Some other player may come along
next year at Olympia Fields and wrest
the championship from the Scot, and
it is only good business that Armour
make as much OF his title as he can
while he has it.
