Ben Hogan Power Golf Sequence
 
One of the greatest golf sequence ever drawn.

Here is the front on view. I will post the target view later.

Heaps of good stuff here Tong, thanks!

I think the comment about "at this point my body has produced all the power it possibly can on the downswing and now the arms and the hands are starting to produce their power." is interesting. Its hard to see this at full speed, but ties in with slow motion demos of swings that I have seen (e.g. Hogan himself in the George Coleman(?) video).

In TGM lingo, it is Body Power (2-M-4) initiated by the Quick Start Down of the Hips (10-19-C) that Transfers Momentum (2-K) to the Arms, Hands (6-B-2/3) and Club. Students of TGM should study the chapter references in brackets :read:.

I just think these drawings are beautiful and I find the self-analysis by Hogan very interesting. I'm not trying to prove anything by drawing lines and triangles, etc. :)

Tongzilla,

If you don't have a hardcover copy of Ben Hogan's Power Golf with its large photographs -- which served as the basis of the line drawings you have posted -- you owe it to yourself to get one. Right now, you can buy one surprisingly cheap on Amazon. Here are two: one for $10.00 and one for $15.80. Click on this link and go to the collectible section. http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listi...n=collectible. These are exceptionally low prices that will be deemed ridiculous in the future.

In any event, the line drawings are great, but the photographs are even greater. And without an 'original' of this classic, your golf library will always be incomplete.

Thanks for the link Yoda.

Go for it, Leo! This is not a book we're talking about...it's Ben Hogan...and history!
