These faults can be corrected as soon
as the player remembers that he must
have control Of the club-head to make
a good mashie shot--and practices to
get that control. Most golfers intro

wrist action In mashle shots-thus
making them difficult to control and
too complicated. The best single cure
know for bad mashie shots is for the
golfer to keep his right elbow in close

his left arm observation-disclosures this
