What you’re looking at

This is a satirical cartoon sequence about golf, specifically depicting "Mental Hazards" for golfers. The page shows two scenes: **Top panel**: A foursome of golfers being watched by spectators, including what appear to be children observing from the sidelines. **Bottom panel**: The same golfers in various states of distress or poor form during play, with exaggerated facial expressions suggesting frustration and poor performance. The satire targets golf's psychological challenges—how golfers' concentration and composure deteriorate under observation and pressure. The caricatured faces and dramatic poses humorously illustrate the mental game of golf. This appears to be part of a series ("No. 2"), likely exploring different hazards golfers face beyond physical course obstacles. The humor relies on recognizing golf culture's well-known psychological difficulties.
