| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses Cross Roads style golf courses, suggesting that "early American golf courses were laid out on...puny scales and along...unintelligent lines." Also suggests that "the greatest obstacle in the way of modern courses in America was the mediocre player." Recommends building diagonal hazard lines which "present a much longer carry at one end than at the other." Concludes that "golf construction [in 1916] is taking care of every class of player." |
