SWAYING & STRAYING

By BEST BALL

Many golfers imagine that their posture at the top of the back- swing is a direct. duplication of the position illustrated here. There are several points wherein a golf expert might find they dif- fer, and, if a player is not watch- ing out for these factors they may slip by unnoticed.

The most flagrant deviation from the above form, would pos¬ sibly be that of swaying. Instead of letting the body turn easily underneath the head as an anchor, as the golfer has done here, these players allow the upper part of the body to sway to the right with the stroke, until at the top of the stroke the head has moved back. a few inches from the position it occupied at address. When this member returns to its original position on

it the downstroke tends to throw the stroke, out of line by just that much. This fault is not easy to discern in one's own play and should be cured before

becomes a habit.

Another place where the player might fall down is in the position
