Of the two Mashies which the complete golfer will carry out with him on to the links, one, for pitching the ball well up with very little run to follow, will have a deep face, will be of medium weight, and be very stiff in the shaft.

Drivers and brassies vary a little, cleeks and irons differ much, but Mashies are more unlike each other than any of them.
