ON THE COVER
Those who swing in balance are those who hit sweet
golf shots. On page 20 of this issue, Ernie
Vossler, the astute Oklahoman who was trie PGA's
1968 Golf Professional-of-the-Year, delineates
key points in balance as they apply to your swing as
well as those of Jack Nicklaus, Bobby Cole and Gary
Player, pictured on the cover. This is part of our late
summer "rejuvenation" program, which also includes
Dave Stockton's Panel dissertation on straight driving
(page 28) and how a higher-handicapped golfer
can best use his strokes to beat anyone, including the
club champion (page 26). Cover design by Ralph Breswitz.
