have in using the maShie over the
ninety yard distance. But why use the
mashie for a stroke that can be ac-
compliShed with the mid-irOn with a
great deal less effort?
mo doubt there are many and con-
fiicting theories as to how correct re-
suits can be attained, but in actual
practice of the best players their meth
DDS do agree and are not nearly as con-
fiicting the paper theories would
lead one to believe.
When the mashie head is placed
directly behind the ball resting on the
heel, and the blade or face turned
slightly out or away from the ball,
aiming to strike we'll towards the heel,
this position will give the correct an
gle or lie of the club, guiding the dis
lance you should stand from the ball.
1t would be impossible to give a def
mite measurement of the exact dis
lance, but the suggestion to assume
comfortable position can readily be
understood when you have arrived at
this stage. Feet not too far apart-not
too long a reach-not hugging the ell
bows-just comfortable.
1.-The all-important part of the
mashie stroke is the position of the
feet, as by the varying of this stance
is given the cut to the ball. In the
first place, draw an imaginary line
from the ball to the hole, then anoth-
er line from the ball to the heel of
the left foot at a perfect right-angle
to the first line. To simplify the bal
ance Of this position we Will take 1t in
three movements: First, by drawing
line parallel to the line to
the hole from toe to toe, bring
ing the shoulders and feet parallel to
the direction the ball is to travel. Sec
ondly, by placing the heel of the right
foot one or two inches within the toe
line, or in the position of a half-turn
towards the hole, and by finally turn
ing the toe of the left foot out the
open stance is completed.
IF you will draw the club back from
the ball in the usual manner after get
ting into this position, you will note
that it travels outward from the ball
and inward or towards you in the
downward stroke, giving natural
slicing motion without any effort on
your part to cut or slice it.
Proficiency in a stroke that is I'M
doubtedly the main-stay of number
of noted golfers may not be attained
in a week or even a season, but by
careful practice this method will not
only add a new stroke to your game
but will materially help the operation
Of all of the other approach irons.
'tOf course there are a number or
experts who do not play the mashie in
spectacular way, but a careful study
of the methods of the first 80 players
in worlds championship will show
that there are many who are no bet
ter than the second flight in the other
departments of their game, but who
depend on this club to put them in a
class by themselves and to which their
phenomenal golf is directly attrib
uted."
