The Complete Golfer His mashie was in excellent repair, and he still had a dozen balls in his bag, it being his prudent practice always to start out with eighteen. The Clicking of Cuthbert The driving mashie usually demands a good lie if it is to be played with any amount of success. The Complete Golfer The ordinary cut mashie stroke is hard to accomplish, but the cut niblick is harder still. The Complete Golfer Generally all mashie shots may be separated into three groups. The Complete Golfer The stance for the mashie differs from that taken when an iron shot is being played, in that the feet are placed nearer to each other and nearer to the ball. The Complete Golfer If, after due contemplation of all the heavy risks, it is decided to make such an attempt, the stroke should be played very much after the fashion of the mashie approach with cut. The Complete Golfer The distinctive features of the driving mashie are that it has a deeper face than that of the cleek, and that this depth increases somewhat more rapidly from the heel to the toe. The Complete Golfer It jars upon one's nerves to see rusty irons and mashies which have evidently not been cleaned for months, and which are now past hope.

The Complete Golfer Finish, with stance also indicated 122 L. A cut approach with the mashie. The Complete Golfer But some golfers like taking the fullest mashie stroke that they can, and, when hesitating between the use of an iron or the lofting club, they usually decide in favour of the latter. The Complete Golfer Instead of saying that "they think they can reach it with their mashie," these golfers should try to decide that "a half iron will not carry them too far." The Complete Golfer They call it the jigger, and, having a longer blade than the ordinary mashie, its users argue that it is easier to play with. The Complete Golfer If a jigger must be carried in the bag, it should be merely as an auxiliary to the ordinary mashie. The Complete Golfer He must have a driver, a brassy, a cleek, an iron, a mashie, and a putter. The Complete Golfer Drivers and brassies vary a little, cleeks and irons differ much, but mashies are more unlike each other than any of them. The Complete Golfer It is particularly requisite that, though there is so much ease elsewhere, the club in the case of these mashie shots should be held quite tightly. The Complete Golfer The prospect of being able to exercise this useful economy is greatest when the mashie is taken in hand. The Complete Golfer But the difference between a really good mashie approach stroke and a bad one is frequently at least a stroke, and I have known it to be more. The Complete Golfer However, not all golfers consider two mashies to be necessary, and I myself depend chiefly upon one. The Complete Golfer In this question of the choice of mashie it is necessary that taste and style should be allowed to have their own way. The Complete Golfer The face of the mashie will not be straight at the moment of impact. The Complete Golfer It is my strong conviction that a man is playing the best and safest golf when he attempts nothing beyond eighty yards with his mashie, using an iron or a cleek for anything longer. The Complete Golfer The mashie is meant to loft, and it is practically impossible to play a long shot with it without lofting the ball very much and exposing it to all the wind that there is about. The Complete Golfer This mashie will also have plenty of loft upon it. The Complete Golfer There's Harry with his driver again"; and I remember that when on one occasion Andrew Kirkaldy was informed that I was playing a driving mashie shot, he was indignant, and exclaimed, "Mashie! The Complete Golfer Moreover, gentle as is much of its work, even the mashie at times has some very rough jobs to accomplish. The Complete Golfer Of mashie shots there is an infinite variety. The Complete Golfer Comparison between the photographs and diagrams will make the extent of these differences and the peculiarities of the stance for the mashie quite clear. The Complete Golfer Again, on making a critical examination of these measurements, the golfer of a little experience will promptly ask why my mashie is an inch and a quarter longer than my iron. The Complete Golfer The swing back should be very straight, and should not be carried nearly so far as in playing an ordinary mashie stroke, for in this case the ball requires very little propulsion. The Complete Golfer There are times, even when the hole is only a yard away, when it might pay best to ask for the mashie instead of the instrument which the caddie will offer. The Complete Golfer |
