he can make up the distance lost by banging away with a wooden club he finds much to his dismay that the ball darts but a few yards forward. His mistake has been
in expecting too much and choos- ing the wrong club. Any straight faced iron would have cut through the heavy grass in better fashion and afforded cleaner contact with the ball.
