AFTER picking up the info on the player trade be{ween the Indianapolis Indians and St. Paul Saints late Monday, Gordon Gilmore of the St. Paul Pioneer Press found it hard to believe that an old favorite was depart. ing Lexington park . .. an idol like Gil English, one of
that smack will come.”
By FREDERICK WILLIAMS United Press Staff Correspondent ATLANTA, Ga, June 11.—The streamlining fever on everything from airplanes to coffee pots is destined to become the answer to a dub's dream when applied to golf equipment, George Sargent, 1009 National Open champion, predicted here today. The veteran Sargent, a former English professional, has worked out with research experts a streamlining plan for golf clubs which he said will reduce the dubs slice and hook by at least one half and will make his drives travel around 25 yards farther in the air. “Streamlined clubs, even in the hands of duffers, would send the ball soaring down the fairway with a lusty smack.” Sargent said.
“They will reduce scores but the greatest joy will come to the beginner's heart when he hears that smack—and under streamlining,
THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
New Super Club Will Lower Golf Scores
THURSDAY, JUNE 11, 1042
THAT PREDICTION, sounding as distant as a rocket trip to Mars, was based on. experience, For Sargent, the pro here at East Lake, is a co-patent holder on a club which will do all that he claims for the golfer's game, After months of experimentation, in which books on “aerodynamics” and the “center of gravity” became blueprints for this “club of tomorrow,” Sargent and a group of scientific researchers have developed a club embodying the same principles as those used on modern pursuit planes, This new super club cannot be bought now for love or money, present golf regulations forbidding it. But the day streamlining gets into the golfing business, clubs will have a flatter shaft, being brought to a flat edge and extended instead of rounded, and will connect with the club head in the center, instead of the back. ” ” ” : ” ” » THE HEAD ITSELF will be smaller, almost down to the size of the ball, and more rounded than oblong. But there's no need to worry.
/
With the flattened shaft cutting down air resistance and the suction which now forms behind the club being practically eliminated, the swing will be truer, which means less slice and hook. That, Sargent said, is a proven fact, The theory was tested in the Georgia Tech wind tunnel. This will mean fewer lost balls, lower scores, farther drives and more. fun out of socking the ball right down the fairway. It seems that the suction behind a swing, along with the natural wind resistance of the rounded shaft, is largely responsible for the balls which just seem to hunt out the woods and hazards. This streamlining, however,
will eliminate the old swish of the club cutting through the air. ’
“We've tried out this new club on duffers,” Sargent said. “Most of them swinging naturally hit themselves in the back of the head, the club being able to move through the air so fast without resistance or suction.” The idea is as old as modern planes. The aerodynamics of aviation which permit higher speed in planes has simply been applied to golf equipment.”
