Tips For Better Golf - ■ ■ By Pro Don Byrd Wawasee Golf Course

Ulis shot b used where the green is open so you can play a low trajectory shot to the putting surface and allow it to roll to the cup. Whenn anddressing this shot your stance should be slightly open so your left side will be turned out of the way in order for your hands to &pass freely on your line of flight. Your feet should be close together and our knees should be flexed. Your hands should be well down on the grip because this short shot requires a short backswnng and even a shorter followthrough. Your hands should be ahead of the ball for this is the way the hands should be at impart as you strike down on the ball, and play the ball in the center of your stance, and dose to your feet, and keep the club face square to the target. Keep your hands and arms dose to your play the sliot with our hands and arms keeping your body steady.

Boating

by u Hervey Garrett Smith Coast Guard Amends Fire Extinguisher Regulation If vou’re the skipper of an outboard motorboat under 26 feet, you may now have to carry a fire extinguisher on board. The Coast Guard has amended the old regulation to eliminate the. confusion over extinguisher requirements. \ The old roquirerfient stated that outboard motor boats, less than 36 feet in length, of open construction, not carrying passengers for hire, are not required to carry fire extinguishers. The problem, according to Coast Guard officials, was the interpretation of “open construction.” The amendment says, “. . .if the construction. . .will not permit the entrapment of flammable gases or vapors. . .a boat is of open construction.” Check the illustration above. If any one of , the conditions shown exist on your boat, it is not of open construction, and a fire extinguisher is required. When buying an extinguisher, be sure to get a Coast Guard approved model. Current regulations for both inboards and outboards under 26 feet approve any one of the following hand-portable types and sizes: foam, one and one fourth gallons capacity; CO-2, four pounds; dry chemical, two pounds minimum capacity. Boats over 26 feet are required to carry additional extinguishers. If in doubt about your requirements, consult the Coast Guard regulations or your marine insurance agent. Remember, having an extinguisher on board doesn’t end your responsibility. They’ must be fully charged and ready to operate. Extinguishers should be inspected and recharged at least once a year, or after use. Dry chemical, stored pressure extinguishers without visual pressure indicators must be weighed every six months . . . and recharged if necessary.

Nine Million Skiers Cannot Be Wrong

There’s one good reason why nine million Americans w-ent water skiing last year. It’s easy to learn, reports Tom Dorwin, former national champion. Unlike many sports that require a battery of expensive lessons before the fun ever starts, you can master the fundamentals of water skiing in an afternoon. The dry land instruction method is one way to make sure you’ll be a fast learner, says Dorwin. This is a simplified form of instruction that can be given anywhere — at the beach, in your backyard or even in your living room. All you need is a pair of water skis, a tow line and someone who can act as an instructor. This can be almost anyone with skiing experience, the more the better. Dry land instrucion has two basic aims: acquaint the beginner with the “feel” of w’ater skis and develop self-confidence. Before instruction begins, do a few deep knee bends. Ws wall loosen up your leg muscles and sharpen your sense of balance and co-ordination. The most popular ski bindings are two piece molded rubber units. The forward piece, into which the foot is inserted, is in a fixed position. The heel piece is mounted on small tracks and slides back and forth. Slide this piece forward for a snug, yet confortable, fit. If you’re near the water, wet the bindings and your feet first. Because the bindings are rubber, your feet will slide in easier when they are wet. Grasp the tow line handle and have your instructor lower you down into a sitting position. The skis should be placed about six inches apart, your knees together and arms outstretched. If done properly, the tow line handle will

be in front of your knees. Your instructor should be positioned a few feet away from you with the tow line in hand. Have him pull you up slowly until you are in a standing position with knees slightly flexed. Practice this several times, at least one half dozen.
