Show MYSTERY OF GOLF IS GREAT Times When Player Is Bound to Score Well and Then on Other Days He Simply Cannot. Every golfer has days when he Is bound to score well. No matter what ke does or riow he hits the ball, the result of the stroke is good. Then there are other days when, no matter how hard he tries, nothing will go right, and it often seems as if the harder you try the worse things go. The caddie stands and grins when the ball that you fondly hoped would soar through the air and come to rest in the fairway 220 yards from the tee, scoots off along the ground and wriggles wrig-gles and squirms under a tuft of grass in the edge of the rough, 40 yards away. Crack or dub It gets every one. What there is about golf that it should be cursed with Wiis "now you have it, now you don't" spirit Is beyond reasoning, rea-soning, but it Is true of every golfer's game. What a grand and glorious feeling It is when, after you have hit a couple far off the mark and feel that life has no charms, you step up to the ball, hit It carelessly and it travels 200 yards dead on the line and stops within a short distance of the hole. The first two strokes are forgotten in the thrill which comes with the perfect shot and once again the sun seems to shine and the birds to sing. Is it the mystery mys-tery of the game that fascinates? Beyond Be-yond a doubt. And if once the mystery mys-tery is solved well, banish the horrible hor-rible thought. |
