over-indulge yourself in eating and drinking during the non-golfing
days, and then expect to work off excess by "a good game of Golf."
You may play Golf of sorts, but it will not be a good game.' 'Don't
make Golf your sole topic of conversation. There are a few
otherwise quite intelligent persons who are non-golfers. You will
never make converts if you bore non-players to distraction by for
ever talking of the Royal and Ancient Game.' 'Don't blame your
clubs for faults of your own that may be easily corrected if you
analyze your methods of using the implements.' 'Don't keep up a
running fire of conversation during the round. Golf is a game in
which thought is necessary and silence is preferable to chatter.'
'Don't irritate your opponent by wearing jazzy colours. To dazzle
his eyes with a multi-coloured pull-over or peace-disturbing golf
stockings is to take a mean advantage.'
