BY SOL METZGER.

Watch "The Haig" on the greens
and you will be amazed at his I'M
canny skill at running them down.
Now watch him more carefully.
You will note that his left elbow
points toward the hole. There is
reason. Sir Walter wants to be sure
the ball will roll true to line. He
knows that any slight move that
tends to pull the face Of the club
of the line. even after the putt is
stroked. will result in the putt curl
ing off the line So he SETS himself
SO that his back swing and down
swing as we'll as the follow through
of the club head will hold this line.
Hagen goes so far as 10 TT: not TO

fearing it will not readihst itself
correctly at the moment of impact.
In other words. he takes the club
head straight back from the ball. as
shown in the detailed sketches, and
he brings it forward along this line.
He puts in a groove straight on the
line to the cup, and after contact,
even though his club head is aris-

The left elbow helps him in holding
