It receives its name from the brass plate covering its sole, and this covering is necessary because the brassie has much rougher work on the fairway than the driver has on the tee, and for the same reason it has a stiffer shaft. The important difference between the two clubs lies in the pitch and loft of the face, that of the brassie slanting backward and that of the driver being almost straight. This slanting face of the brassie enables it to lift the ball in a way impossible for the driver. The latter club, however, obtains something of the lofting power of the brassie from the tee from which it is played. The stance for the brassie is the stance for the driver. The swing and grip of the club are also the same except that the grip should be firmer because this club comes in frequent contact with rough ground when playing from a bad lie.

When the ball is badly cupped the first impulse is to use an iron, but if the situation really requires a brassie shot play it no matter how strong the iron temptation may prove. If the ball is lying fairly well the stroke with the...
