GOLF SIMPLIFIED Ry Charles (Chick) Evans, Jr. k 11 i I St —w ' F'G- ' ■'S I ’ FIG 2 •>, •> * -y-'' • Ted Ray said that the bunkers al Oakmont reminded him of marked ofl spaces in which a person was required to lose at least one shot. He regretted

5 the loss of the opportunity to get out of the traps for greater distances and in more different ways. For instance, 1 if in a trap where the sand is not ri,lg6 ed one might be lying in such c way that a sliced ball would get him out farther and better, or a hook, or he ; might take just an inch of sand in- ! stead of two or three tn"hes. In othet ’ words, the more variety there is to the [ traps in their lie, the more interesting he thought the golf would be. Btr nevertheless these traps are there and they certainly are what their nanus signify. In order to get out of them one had to play the explosion shot entirely. Most of the boys played it by striking two or three Inches back of the ball and being sure that the clubhead did not quit until it had passed Into the sand an inch or two nearer 'he hole from the place where the ball was (Fig 3.). Here again you found most of them laying th? face of the blade open a little bit. (Fig 2 This is dttngerou practice because if you let it open too much the striking surface may slip underneath tile ball and not allow the sand to push the ball out. The way to play it jg to take your hands back a little bit an.! then use your wrists according to the strength needed to pm into the particular weight of sand your clubhead must go through to go the re quired distance. Mos, of the fellowuse full strokes for this shot, but 1 believe that half strokes are better for the shots atound the green. Fig. 1 You want to be sure ’hat you keep your eye on this stroke.
