An examination of golf concentration, contrasting stationary targets with moving ones, highlights legends like Bobby Jones, Walter Hagen, Ben Hogan, Byron Nelson, Gene Sarazen, and Jerry Travers. Travers, praised by Alex Smith as the greatest concentrator, stresses focusing on the next shot and maintaining nerve through match play, with references to Blackwell and early 1947 pitching feats as context.
