Hogan Home Video

[dlnljl]

Here is a piece of a Ben Hogan Home Video from his home on the beach at Palm Beach. The quality is so so and I think Hogan has had a few beverages but he still has his smooth swing. He does a few swings, then some in slow motion and shows how he grips the club.
I've uploaded it to my site for a short period of time, only as a downloadable file. Sorry but its 40megs in size.
I will leave it up on the site for awhile if there is interest in it, and or my bandwidth usage starts getting too high.

Wow thanks, That has to be the most simplified swing ever. It's like a hot knife through butter just effortless. I'm saving that video.

That was awesome. I mean what a smooth effortless swing. He was way ahead of his time.

I really enjoyed watching the clip, Thanks a lot.

He's using a wood driver, likely persimmon, which had a distinct sound and steel shafts. It was a "Twack". I used to play Hogan clubs, including full set of wood-woods. I recognize the rubber grey white Hogan grips.

Even now, the old pros who are still around say there are/were few golfers who stuck the ball as pure as Hogan. As they say for Tiger now, they say it's a different sound when the great ball stickers hit the ball.
