British Golfers
Make Use of Wind
LANES BRAID
! PLAYING
J a HOOK

If you wish to win the British
open you must master the high
winds. The British, as we know,
are masters Of this element which
did play such havoc with our
many visiting champions until re-
cent years. They know how to
keep their shots low and they
know how to play hooks and slices
into the wind in order to use 1t
to reach the greens when straight
shots would fail.
James Braid, for example, whom
I have sketched above playing a
hook, or right-to-left shot as they
call it over Their, was one of the
first to use the winds. That ac-
counts for his five victories in the
British open. Braid's methods-and
most of the later stars patterned
their games after him--learned
that a clubs face could be opened
or closed at the address, and later
at contact, without once changing
his grip on the leather. Merely a
matter of changing the angle of
the club shaft. Thus, to obtain a
hook, he toed it in at stance. or
toed it out to secure a slice. Thus,
at the top of the swing, one fac
ing him from the green, could call
his shots by the position of the
head of the club. When 1t pointed
to the right side of the fairway,
Braid hooked, when it pointed to
the left he sliced. To get straight
ball the face of the head should
point toward the flag at the top OF
the swing.
