Excerpt from Driving, Approaching Putting To many, iron play is one of the most attractive features of golf, and in commencing a chapter on this theme I would advocate a fairly open position for the feet, a stance rather closer to the ball than when employing wooden clubs, something short of a full swing, a firm grip, an avoidance of too much looseness of the legs, not too much force, and keeping in mind that more important than distance is straightness. The iron shot demands an open position of the feet, and the arms must not be allowed to drift too far away from the body. Again, if the feet are allowed to go "all over the shop, " or are kept too closely together, the balance is affected adversely, and inevitably the swing will not be correct, for the simple reason that it cannot be correct. Whatever weight the golfer has should be divided equally between the two feet in iron play, and in this department of the game I am convinced that steadiness on the feet is something to be aimed at in the novitiate stage and achieved in later days.
