One golfer recently found a 'new Club the home side are 196' runs behind with 7 wickets outstand-way to take strokes off his handicap. Others I know have followed his Ing.

method with happy results."

The Club were lucky in winning the toss and batting on a perfect wicket and scored steadily to com- pile a total of 284. K. H. Batger contributed a patient innings of 106 before being taken in the long field and was largely responsible for stopping any threatened rats.

J. C. Lyal, the new Kowloon skip. per, came out with the best bowl- ing figures of 3 wickets for 41 runs, Captain Reynolds secured three for 42. E. C. Fincher and W. C. Hung (13) are the present not out bata-

Every golfer has his "hoodoo" hole-the hole that baffles him every time. It is a hole that makes an ugly, blot on good cards, and often brings worse disaster because it may completely upset the confidence of the player, an effect lasting several holes.

One golfer, it is recorded, had taken up the game after an army career, and he made good "progress except that he never could carry a certain water hazard with success.. His every round included at least one sacrifice to the lake.

His, however, was the "never-say- die" spirit. He went out one day reason why. He heard determined to carry the lake or know the one ball after another go "plop" into Why does a hole become a hoodon the waters until he had exhausted all he carried with him. He sent hole?

the caddy back to the clubhouse for another box, and despatched thuse in the same direction. Having put two boxes of balls into the lake, ho smashed his driver and threw that in, flung his bag of clubs in after It, attempted to throw the caddy in. and was only persuaded by the efforts of his friends not to fling. himself in..

More often than, not the hole is not the most difficult on the course. In fact, each player has his own hoodoo hole, and a 'hole that one player finds easy may be difficult for another. The reason must be that your hoodoo hole is the one that exposes your weaknesses. If ong player's hoodoo hole is the seventh, and another is made unhappy by the eighth, it is necessary to look at the players, rather than the holes, for the reason for this.

Consider some types of holes. The Long Hole.

There is the very long hole, where you must hit a good tee shot and a long brassie to be certain of being on in three; there is the short hole that demands ac- 281 well-guarded,

curacy with the mid-iron if you are not to spend some time in the sand. There is the casy-looking hule that

A type of hole that beats many players is the hole that has a green easy enough to reach, but tricky almost unfair-when you reach it If any golfer will consider what hole on his home course beats him, and set himself grimly to tackle it 88 until he is master of its difficulties, he must strengthen his weak shots

That was how a "hoodoo" hole ono tested the temperament of golfer.

If he came across one that proved difficult he would go out every evening after dinner and play that hole a dozen times,

And, even if they bring themselves to the point of starting out with the best of intentions, they are apt to experiment with the club, rather than practise with it; golfers crave variety, and only the super- man can really practise.

By going out with the grim deter. mination to master your "hoodoo" hole, you practise the strokes that 13 most need to be strengthened, and there is all the variety of golf in the effort.

LIM JUST MISSES CENTURY.

Even the greatest golfers--mas- ters of every shot in the game- have "hoodoo" holes. Usually they are not the much-feared difficult holes of a coarse, but holes that are more subtle, holes that lure the export into a sense of security, and punish him for a moment of care- lessness, or for attempting to take liberties with them.

And that suggests that every golfer, from the champion to the novice, must benefit by a study of own "hoodoo" hole.-(China his Mail Copyright).
