Mystery of golf, etc

THE
MYSTERY
OF
GOLF
looks
forward
to
the
time
when
some
more
rigid
and
scientific
analysis
of
stroke
shall
be
possible,
and
when
some
fixed
and
ideal
form
shall
be
evolved.
Personally,
I
look
forward
to
the
time
when
all
these
elaborate
directions
as
to
the
precise
manner
in
which
some
twenty-
seven
and
a
half
drachms
avoirdupois
of
gutta-percha
shall
be
propelled
some
two
hun-
dred
yards
shall
be
regarded
as
a
curious
characteristic
of
a
bygone
age.
Some
two
thousand
years
ago
Aristotle
had
the
temerity
to
affirm
that
the
lyre
was
learned
by
playing
the
lyre.
Some
two
thousand
years
hence
some
golfer
may
have
the
temerity
to
affirm
that
golf
is
learned
by
playing
golf.
In
proof
of
which
rash
assertion
I
here
adduce
an
illus-
tration
as
simple
and
as
disappointing
as,
I
feel,
is
my
prediction.
There
is
at
my
club
a
little
caddie,
by
name
Willie
Dobson
(note
the
name,
I
pray
you;
it
may
some
day
be
in-
scribed
on
as
many
clubs
as
is
now
the
name
of
Willie
Dunn).
