Gene Never Takes
Mashie Clear Back

So important is 1t not to over
swing with the mashie that Sara
zen. Duncan and Barnes never go
beyond the three quarter mark on
the backswing. They do not seek
distance with this club. Its purpose
is for accurate approaching They
know the range of the mashie for
this purpose They know that If they
try for greater distance than the
known range they are bound to make
mistakes When the shot is beyond
the mashie range another club is
used.
Another point about the top Of the
swing in mashie play, clearly shown
In the sketch of Sarazen. is that the
wrist cock Is more abbreviated than
for wooden shots. 1t is just enough
to permit the player TO get the club
In motion on the downSwing.
This wrist cock occurs when one
feels that If he takes the mashie
back farther he must bend his lef
elbow. Then is the time to stop the
backswing and to cock the wrists.
