T": mid-iron, the most useful of the trons, is a Copyright 1913, club beginners don’t have much trouble learn- ing how to play. It is the favorite for nearly all golfers, both novices and players with more ex- perience. In a pinch the mid4ron can the work of all the other clubs. My faith in the mid-ron is so great that I always carry three along with me, each one made a little differently for special work. Beginners when they first try to master the mid- iron don’t need to worry about spending long hours of practice on the club. It isn’t necessary. Novices, I find as a rule, learn to play the mid-iron well after a few lessons. The same rules that were explained for the brassle, spoon and cleek are used for the mid-iron. About the only change is the grip. To get off a jood shot with tho mid-iron, take a firm grip with the and hold Do not swing back quite as far as for the cleek and try to make least bit more vertical. Above everything ele” never forget the old rule to keep the eyes on the back centre of the ball. The iron shot, like the cleek, is really nothing more than a hit at the ball, The ball, of course, must be struck irately, bitt {|| thie cannot be dono If the eyes are not on the ball. When making the mid-iron stroke Gen't try for a loft. When a sharp rise of the bali is wanted use the spoon, never the mid-iron. The face of the mi4-iron ts not so straight up and down ae the cleek and !t isn't laid back as far as the mashie, The club is clev- erly and perfectly constructed to hit the ball with the easiest kind of a stroke, and this can best be done by aa ever and there is nothing wrong with aquard, NWE MINUTES TO GET TS GRAND CENTRAL AND SQUEN SECONDS % REACH THE COwER LEVEL cre!
