A TIP FROM A MASTER
By BEST BALL Jimmy Demaret is no dis- ciple of the 'play safe" techni- que: in golf: but he does feel many players try to stretch a drive or an from: too far. "Know your own limitations and play within them,” is the advice. handed out by the sharp shooting Texan: This is a pretty tough dish for the average golfer to swallow for the run of the mine player al- ways has hopes of bringing. his score down in the low: eighties on some particularly gala occasion: In Derbaret's book and many another pro- fessional's, this is easier of ac- complishment when one plays well within himself and re- fuses to press. Bobby Jones often. declared that his low scoring rounds were a lot less work than the ones in which he went a stroke or two. over par. Which meant that on that particular day Bobby was hitting, the ball well and not struggling to make. next to impossible shots.
Demaret's form is geared for delicate approaches as well as long drives. Much of the secret lies in his smooth hip action. In the above illustra-. tion his right side has turned well aside from the path of his hand in the up-stroke. The comfortably right elbow is R. Basa, J. S. Landolt, A. E. Coates.
