Illustrated with 20 photos and 10 diagrams.A few samples of the author's observations:On certain types of grass:'They whip themselves round the shaft and arrest its progress, like the toasted cheese which clings to your feet in a nightmare, when you are within a hundred yards of the city of refuge, and the avenger at your heels.'On proper equipment:'It is usual to carry two irons -- a heavy for driving, a light for approaching.'On putting:'When the ball is down, and the putter handed to the caddy, it is not well to say, 'I couldn't have missed it.' Silence is best. The pallid cheek and trembling lip belie such braggadocio.'
