At this point, the right elbow is close to the body, and is lower than the left elbow. The elbows are held as close together as is comfortably possible throughout the entire backswing. 8. THE FOLLOW-THROUGH After impact, the elub-head continues through the ball and out toward the target until both arms are fully extended. Meanwhile, the head remains steady, left side firm. As the follow- through continues, the arms relax and the head now turns with the shoulders in a natural movement. The hips have now pivoted around and are facing square to the target. Be careful not to restrict the follow-through by keeping the head down after the arms have become fully extended. 9. IRON SHOTS n I All properly hit iron shots should produce backspin, for con!

CHIPPING The proper club for this short, low shot which is to be landed on the green whenever possible is determined by the distance from the green, the amount of green to the pin, and its speed. Choice ranges from the 5-iron for the short carry-and-run, to the 9-iron for the longer carry with less roll. For running shots, the ball is struck with a closed club-face, for maximum over- spin. Where the ball must be stopped in a smaller area, open the face. With feet close together, the club-shaft is "choked" three-four inches, held firmly, and the ball struck with wrist action. There is no conscious body movement. Length of backswing and follow-through, as in pitching, should be about equal. not digging in too deeply. Using an open stance with the club-face opened and the feet firmly planted, aim the club-head at a point 27-3" behind 18. PUTTING the ball --in the knowledge that the amount of sand taken behind the ball determines the length of the shot. Body action is limited; this is a wrist shot. At no time should the sole of the club go deeper than 1" into the sand, except in the case of a buried ball. For this, the ball is positioned in the centre of the stance and the club-face is closed slightly.
