Ily Johnny i'arrell,
(As Tola To Artie McGovern)
You often hear a remark to the
effect, that a prize fighter has left
his stamina In his training quarters,
and this same theory applies to .the
golfer who wastes his best shots on
the practice tee.
eome practice Is necessary, of
course, but hitting balls off a prac
tice tee for several hours at a time
Is not going to Improve your game.
Ten minutes each with the woods,
the Irons and the putter. Is a fair
amount of practice, but more than
half an hour only brings about uti1
necessary physical exhaustion, blis
tered hands, and an additional men
tal hazard In the realization that
your game Is far from perfect.
One of the best methods of prac
tice is to go out on the course at a
time when It la not crowded and
f PIft' balls on each hole. This
8'v you an opportunity to study
the various shots, different Ilea and
distances, and since you play alone.
you can uuce your lime ana nci rusn

(note later he remarked this was j
good omen for whole year as a vic-i

rush 10 years ago.) j
Florida West Coast finished third

Johnny Farrell. j
