your right hand grip just as you
go through the ball. This is a
rather common weakness among
average shooters. Your arms be-
gin to pull on you as you go
through the ball, just as you pull
through the ball, just as you pull
the back swing, and so your un-
trained muscles fail to stand up
and meet this pull. The first "re-
lease" you make is with the grip
of your right hand. Next, you
straighten up your body-all be.
cause of the released grip-and
finish standing up straight. In
stead. hold on with both hands
not rigidly-and let your body
swing through. This results in
a sort of "going under" action,
which makes you finish in a
stopped position, with the right
shoulder pointing down.

Swing the driver. and stop on
the back-swing at the "three-duar'
ter" point, noting carefully the
correct. position of the wrists, arms
and body. Now duplicate the po-
sition with an iron club in your
hands, and you have what / con-
slider the correct position for a
full iron shot. This is surely
more simple method than changing
your whole swing just because you
are using an iron and not
wooden club.
1 am of the opinion that accuracy
is much more easily obtained with
short-shafted clubs in iron play.
The same remark applies with even
greater emphasis in mashie play.
A great many players use mashles
much too long for them. For this
the makers are In some way re-
sponsible. And yet makers are not
altogether to be blamed, for the
simple reason that a new club, II
too long, can be cut down, while
it cannot so easily be heightened.
Makers naturally leave their shafts
on the long side to meet the de-
mands of those players who Will
have long shafts in their clubs.
The novice, when buying his first
mashie, naturally knows nothing
about the correct length of the
shaft. He takes what is given him
and begins to play with it.
Not infrequently, therefore, a be-
ginner will find himself struggling
with a club, which can never give
really satisfactory results. however
skilful the user. I know we are all
too apt to blame our clubs Tor
our bad shots. However, ] do say
that it Is extremely important for
every golfer, and more especially
a novice, to see that his shafts are
of the right length.
n any doubt exists, measure
the shafts carefully, and make
sure YOU are not dOub1y handi-
Gaping yourself by endeavOring
to WELD clubs which are greater
than STANDARD" length.
The standard length for
mashie is 371a inches-don't be
tempted to use anything longer;
rather would l suggest that you
would be wise to play with some
thing shorter.
In my next article I will stress
the all.importance of accuracy in
the use of the mashie and some
ideas of how to use the club ef-
fectively.

member On the first tee, Harvey
sliced his ball into a pile of stone
in front of the barn.
Harvey was actually stymied by
the tree and was forced to waste
shot by playing diagonally onto the
fairway. His third landed on the
edge of the green and dropped a
40-foot for a par four, causing Diff
fenbaugh to lose the hole from
shock.
He repeated again on the fourth
hole by slicing to the trees that
divide the first and fourth fair
ways. He tried to play diagonal
shot out to the fourth fairway, but
was blocked by the ball which laid
only an inch from the tree trunk.

Harvey did as instructed and
