A CHOICE IN GOLF SHOTS.
LESSON OF THE PITCHED APPROACH,
[BY HARRY VARDON (81X TIMES OPEN
CHAMPION):
lt think it can be said that at least one long-drawn-out controversy in con nection with golfing methods. has been. settled by popular decision. It the question as to the relative merits of two distinct ways of playing approach shots -one by pitching the ball up to the bole with as little run as possible, and the other by introducing a combination of pitch and ran.
Mr. Harold Hilton remarked' the other.. day that at an amateur championship, the onlooker would see three out of every four short approaches played on the high trajectory principle, with an attempt to impart back-spin to the ball; and that, at `n professional tournament one could count on four out of every five such. shots being made in this way. The pro- portions certainly are not, exaggerated. Inder among the professionals, it is difficul: now-a-days to find any who show faith in the pitch-and-run "method, save a few Scots of the old school in whose constitutions the system is ingrained, and an occasional young Scot who has lived all his life in his native country and taken to this shot as naturally as to porridge, although" pertings uos with such good results.
Among English professionals, the -pitched approach is universal, and almost the same may be said in regard to English amateurs. - And if we accept the doctrine that the proof of the pud- ding is in the eating, it can surely be claimed that this. choice has justifed itself. for, in professional events parti- cularly, Scottish golfers have secured singularly few of the tasty morsels dur- ing recent years. The pitch-and-run" shot is so essentially indigenous to Scotland where it is nothing short of a venerated tradition, that one cannot help blaming it at least in part, for the fact that the country rarely produces a professional capable of bolding his own in modern first-class competition.
PRESTWICK SIDELIGHTS" Take, for instance, the recent open championship at Prestwick. If we except Macdonald Smith whó, although Scottish Born, has been an American citizen, for many years and has Americanised his golfing methods in every way, the leading Scot was the amateur champion, Mr. Robert Harris. He tied for eleventh place. And it tab he said "that his methods have become Anglicized in a considerable degree by more than twenty years residence in the London district. The Scottish professionals had only three men in the first twenty-five places-surely their most unsatisfactory record in the history of the event.
Similarly, in the subsequent tourua- ment for 1,000 guineas at Gleneagles, only thru Scottish professionals gained piners among the 32 men who qualified for the match stages. Those three were) true representatives of their country in the wense that they came fresh from Scottish courses, and had not been in- fluenced by association with England methods. But alas! they were all benten in the first two rounds of the matches,
In certain respects, Prestwick lent "itself to the playing of the pitch-and-run shot. A good many of the holes after the first two are adapted to this kind of approach, and, with the ground hard, nne might have expected some measure of success to attend the efforts of com- petitors who elected to pitch the äp. proach only part of the distance and. run the rest, instead of banging it up to the hole with the risk of bounding over the green. And yet those who banged it up to the hole came off, best, as they always do.
Mr. Hilton-as fine a judge of the game as ever lived, and one whose opin. ious are valued as highly by professionals
