Show Under-Clubbing Must Be Avoided at Start By MIKI BRADY Waaurn Opan Champion. A great many golfers, oapeelally th. young and vlgoroua, d.valop early th. habit of und.r-clubblng. They tak. a maahl. niblick, with a full awing, where they ought to uke a maahle with a half to three. quarter awing, or a mashle where they ahould take a light Iron, or a light Iron wher. they ahould uee a mldiron. and ao on up th. lln. It la a big mlatake, for the reaaon that It la perfectly tbvinua that a half awing, with th. club auited to th. dlatanre. la far more apt to be accurate than overewtnglng with th. club that It not auited to th. tllatanc. called for. Not only le underolubblng a bad habit but It la a habit none too aay to overcome. Some of th beat go fare In tha game., amateur and profeaalonal, hare learned the leaaon of playing well within th.ma.lvea and not praaalng for dletanee with on. club when another will do the deed more easily. If you will notice the topnotchera playing a hole against the wind, you frequently will see them uee a driving Iron on a hole wher they normally would uae mldiron and wher they could still gat home with the mldiron by praaalng the shot, I have known Instance, where a golfer had had a fatiguing trip to a course, felt tired and all the way around mad. a point of over, i clubbing himself practically all th way around. In order to conserve hla strength, and score about as well as he could when fresh and strong, using the clubs ordinarily auited te the dletanee. dene Baresen. during hla tour last winter, adopted the plan of frequently reeortlng to a spoon where he previously would have used an Iron, for Just the reaeone above mentioned. Don't make the mlatak of uaing an Iron Just because your playing companion does so. |
