304 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm. ; ; SBN: 0940889218; 9780940889217; LC: GV964 .L68 ; OCLC: 33988457 ; Originally published: London : J. Nisbet, [1900] ; red cloth with gold lettering ; no dustjacket ; "It was rarely except on the Links that I saw Freddie. It was my custom, and that of several others, to walk round and watch his play at golf, but I never even saw him compete for the Medal, or in any greater contest than a match over both Links with Andrew Kirkcaldy. We used to make little bets with him, in ordinary matches, that he would not do the round under seventy-eight, or some such figure, and we were apt to lose our halfcrowns. At first, his extraordinary driving was the chiet attraction, but he later aimed more at accuracy, and drove much within his powers. I remember his coming into the Club and asking whether it was worth while to measure a drive he had made. He had, in fact, "overpowered" the Heathery Hole, the thirteenth as you come in, on the right-hand course. The drive has been disputed, and I only narrate what I remember. Perhaps my recollection is inaccurate. He was playing behind his brother Willie, and, when the brother and partner had played their second, Freddie's ball flew over their heads, and lighted on the long, narrow table-land which there crosses the Links. Freddie, on approaching the hole, could not find his ball, and, I think, gave up the hole, and then found his ball about "hole-high." The day was of a light frost, brilliantly sunny, and with the faintest flicker of air, no breeze. I remember seeing Mr. Tait measuring the distance to the place where the ball was found, and I think the whole extent was about 350 yards, the "carry" being about 250 yards. Probably there is a more authentic record than my memory supplies. At first, his extraordinary driving was the chiet attraction, but he later aimed more at accuracy, and drove much within his powers.
