Why does the attempt

a sue-

The slugger may travel cessful road in boxing or baseball but it's the swinger who gets the trophies in golf.

When a player tries to slug the ball, he usually brings his right shoulder around in a circle, lockingj the funds and arms before they ran

under way. The arnis wing freely without any body in- terference.

"Think in terms of swinging' rather than hitting," says Mac- donald Smith. And Mae Smith, be- CRuse of his faultless swinging, is perhaps the cleanest hitter in the' Kume.

If there is the least pull from he will left shoulder, the right arm never get its chance to straighten out. All wrist and arm action will be late and the power will be lest.
