Things get kind of futuristic in this Bobby Jones short subject about the art of playing golf. With him it was an art. But in real life he and Guy Kibbee and Glenda Farrell did live long enough to see television come into being.

Guy Kibbee after a horrible day on the links in disgust throws his clubs in the fireplace. But then flicks on television and sees Bobby Jones has taped him and proceeds to show the world what Kibbee is doing wrong with his golf fame.

With Glenda Farrell playing Kibbee's wife this particular Jones feature boasts a bit of plot to it as well as the golf instructions. Those short subjects are invaluable to golfers today. Jones was as much a student of the art of hitting golf ball as Ted Williams was of hitting a baseball.

Did Ted ever make any instructional films for his sport.

The short form refers to creative works characterized by their brevity and concise storytelling. Unlike full-length feature films, short films have a running time of less than 45 minutes, while TV shorts have a running time of less than 22 minutes.
