mered a brassie with all my strength
and 1t covered the pin all the way.
You've laid 1t stone dead said
Tommy.
Then the gallery broke into a storm
OF applause, and found that had

OF course, 1t was luck, but the shot

Keep Head Down and Hit Ban.
With the modern far-flying ball
there Is little use for the brassie among
the leading amateurs and professionals,
probably not more than once or twice

not be reached with second shot with
No. or iron at most. For the
average run Of golfer, though, the wood
Is a frequently used club, not only off

The best advice that can be given Is:
Keep the head down and hit the ball.
II you do that consistently you're sure
