  • Adjustable Clubs cannot be used for tournament play, but they are great for travel, especially now that the airlines charge so much for checked bags.

  • Niblick = 9 iron; mashie-niblick = 7 iron; mid-mashie = 3 iron; cleek = 1 iron.

    Adjustables are still made, and certainly still used. I've used one at the range, but never out on the links. Most seem to have shafts which are roughly the length of a mid-iron. It's virtually impossible to get anything nearing standard driver distances with them.

  • As a manufacturer and collector of adjustable golf clubs, I have never seen this one before. It appears to be of European design. By the number of teeth it has 5 iron settings

    (p-d-4-8-w). It appears to be a forging or cast steel made before investment castings (1970s). It probably failed because of the locking button (similar to the SOLO club and

    unlike the WALKERS CLUB. Zolf
