States a writer on golf:—A niblick is like a good lawyer. You need both to got out of trouble with. Both are apt to throw up a lot of unnecessary dust, and the necessity for using either one isn’t much of a compliment to (lie way you play the game. When you got yourself in a position where you have to use either, be sure you choose one with a good bead, well balanced, and over which you have some control. Lawyers get you out of boles and so do niblicks, but the wise man arranges bis affairs so that his niblick’s principal use is wearing out bis golf hag and bis lawyer wearing out bis office carpet.
