PREFACE,
is inoculated with the germ of falseness of
attack. Let the beginner decide resolutely
that he will not be satisfied with half mea-
sures.
If this sounds idealistic, my reply
is
that
the higher your aims the better for your
game. A man's sins in golf inevitably find
him out. The day of reckoning may be de-
ferred, but sooner or later it will come. In
the meantime, development has been stopped,
and when, on account of those sins, his game
breaks down, the offender has to go a long
way back, and start all over again.
I am entirely with Mr John L. Low when
he says—as he often has done—that there is
pleasure in the knowledge of having played
a stroke correctly, regardless of how the ball
finishes. If the, game is learned in this spirit,
I am convinced the return, in pleasure and
in skill, will be tenfold.
