In playing a ball out of high grass, a good pair of shoulders, a strong pair of arms, and a good thug at the ball are the things needed. That the club may cut through as little grass as possible and to prevent the wires of grass winding themselves around the shaft, stand well in front of the ball and use the up and down jerk stroke with a half swing.

Suggestions

With the backward swing, bring the club up slowly so that the grass will be less liable to wind itself around the shaft.

Because the grass in winding around the shaft keeps the club head from coming down on the ball with as much force as usual, play to send the ball beyond the hole.
