What is another word for brassies?

Pronunciation: [bɹˈasɪz] (IPA)

Brassies are a type of golf club that is designed to hit the ball long distances. They were commonly used in the early 20th century but have since been replaced by other clubs. Synonyms for brassies include fairway woods, long irons, and hybrids. Fairway woods are designed to hit the ball from the fairway and are similar in shape to brassies. Long irons are also used for long-distance shots but are easier to hit than brassies. Hybrids are a combination of a wood and an iron and are designed to provide more forgiveness on off-center shots. These clubs have made brassies obsolete, but the term remains a nostalgic reminder of early golf equipment.
