Ben hogan method or (secret) seems to me, weak anti hook grip, open club face at address, half way down, even more open club face , then the magic move… try to hook the hell out of it. Of course from these positions he can't hook it, but he comes mighty close. What do you get if you don't quite get any draw? A dead straight shot.
It's always amazing to me to clearly see how much the pro's are on their left side at impact. Hogan's right heel is off the ground way, way before he makes contact.
Is this real Ben Hogan?
This movie wasn't taken at Seminole GC. It was taken at George Coleman's property in Florida by Seminole GC. The story goes that the Coleman's had new video camera they wished to try out, and George wanted to film Mr Hogan's swing. He agreed, on the exception that no one but the Coleman's and their closest friends be allowed to watch it.
Wow. The DTL portion really showed the "Shangri la" move. I'm going to the range today.
