   14 Clubs.  That is the limit...determined by the USGA, long ago.

   I've seen players shoot Par Golf, though, with as few as 7 clubs.

   A couple caveats;  it has been at a Mid-Length course (Meadow Links & Golf Academy), it has been by a Junior Golfer, "Par" was shortened to "junior-appropriate" distances.

   Now the same principles apply, though, to all adults and all yardaged courses.

   (Doug Stultz, PGA Golf Manager of the Hamilton County Park District, recently told me of how he watched Jim Dent shoot 72, on  a regulation course, with 3 clubs.)

   I've also seen older juniors, at adult-length "par" - shoot their same scores - with about 6 clubs in their bag.

   How can this be done?

   The secret lies in understanding two simple golf concepts:

   1)  Greens are about 30 yards from front-to-back.

   2)  The only place you need perfection in golf, is in your putting, chipping and pitching.

   Meditate on and consider these two principles/concepts/dynamics/observations - and tomorrow I'll explain them in more detail.

   ...looking forward to it!
