I have known my friend Jack White intimately for upwards of thirty years, and have admired the soundness of all departments of his game, but if there be one phase of it above the others that has claimed my interest, it is his wonderful putting.<br><br>It has always seemed to me that to get a glimpse of the true science of putting one must look for it in the old school of Scottish Golf. In that school one is made to realise that the play around the hole receives the just due that its delicacy-and charm rightly demand. In these modern days one is apt to forget that it is on the putting-green that holes are won or lost. The charm and value of the short game is often lost amid the physical joys that the long shots give, but after many years of hard, strenuous professional golf, I am more and more convinced that much greater attention should be paid to the approach and holing out.
