The well-known professional golfer, Bill Cox, and his assistant, Len Rowe, demonstrate some of the more common faults in the game and show how they can best be mastered. They suggest that a short club or similar object would assist golf enthusiasts to follow the programme. Bill Cox also gives a brief explanation of the much discussed American wedge shot.
