Slicing Hints
There are various ways 70 elm
mate the slice. Here are a few.
1.-Footholes. Take a small fire
shovel along with you and dig
small pits for your feet. Besides
helping eliminate the slice. this
will prevent your kicking the ball.
2.-Supose a lion wanders onto
the course. Sink your putt quickly
and head for the nearest tree. 10
doesn't matter what kind Of tree It
Is, YOU will get up 10.
3.-Monkeys are harmless Of
course II they are playing in the
forsome ahead OF you. shoot
through.
A lynx often will cause YOU
TO press. resulting in a palpable
slice. II he Is your partner, tell him
to look the other way. If not. ask
him what kind Of bird that is in
the tree over there.
