| Abstract/Contents: | Suggests that "one of the most certain earmarks of a modern golf course are twisting, irregularly shaped fairways." Describes dog-leg and elbow shaped holes, explaining that "a dog-leg hole provides some pronounced obstruction, which forms a corner in a twisted fairway from either side. If it be impossible to carry over this obstruction, but at the same time necessary to get beyond it in order to open up the next shot, we have a Dog-leg. If a similar obstruction may be carried by a courageous shot, which is rewarded by a very distinct advantage, we have an Elbow." |
