made too quickly, your effort
then will be merely to jab the
iron at the ball with forearms
and wrists stiff and rigid. This

There is the case. for instance,
of the player who stops to check the
things he must and must not do each
time he addresses the ball. His
feet must be placed just so. every
detail of the grip must be adjusted,
the exact distance away from the
bali measured, and so on.
Now this meticulous care is al
right, in a way, for the player who
Is trying to build up his game ana
arrive at q uniform method Of swing.
ing the club. And naturally to ac-
quire a uniform, mechanical swing
a certain amount OF testing and ex.
perimenting is necessary.
But these operations certainly
ought not be permitted to become q
ritual or a ceremony, and after a
reasonable amount Of experimenting
a decision ought to be reached.
And once this has been done
the player should take them for
granted and ease his mind on
the subject. at least until such
time as he Is convinced that
!. some detail here or there can
be improved.
The trouble with these painful,
Iaborious ceremonies is that they
leave the player in a frame of mind
from which it is next to an impos-
sibility to produce good shot. He
is all tenseneGs. Doubts which be.
set him over minor points put him
mentally on the defensiye-jumpy,
il you please, at any sight sugges-
ton. And such condition utterly
destroys the necessary sense Of re-
Taxation and freedom from restraint
in swinging the club which are es-
sential to every well-played shot.
One frequently hears some player
tell how he played a certain round,
which was begun under conditions
that promised nothing but
wretched score, yet, which turned
out to be one of the very best he
ever played.
The start was made while he
was feeling anything but good.
There was no spirit or keen
ness for the game. And yet by
the time he had gotten well
under way, he discovered that
he was scoring as well or better
than he ever had.
There is very easy explanation
for experiences OF this kind. The
absence of the desire to score we'll
and the don't care attitude leaves
the player thoroughly relaxed and
naturally the swing is smooth and
easy. I have frequently seen play
ers start round feeling extraordi-
narily fit and fine, only to begin by
trying to knock the cover off the
ball.
A poor shot rsults, they find
trouble and by the time the first
hole is played they find themselves
in regular frenzy. In a fit of
evaporation they lose sight of all
the basic fundamentals, swing too
fast, get themselves off balance,
mistime the stroke badly, lift the
head too soon, and commit a half
dozen more golfing crimes, which
render a good shot impossible.
There is no criticism to be aimed
at the player who takes his time in
sizing up a stroke. In selecting the
proper club to use, and in playing
the shot deliberately. But avoid
making labor of playing the
game, and remember that smooth
steady swing, where the muscular
system is free from high tension
is the basis of well-hit golf shot.
