Hogan vs. Woods

• PGA Victories- 64 vs 50
• Majors- 9 vs 11
• Yearly Win Leader, yrs- 5 vs 7 (5 consecutive)
• Scoring Avg Leader,yrs- 3* vs 6

*includes 2yrs Vardon Trophy Point winner


In 3 years it will be a clean sweep on all these stats.
Not bad for 10 years of work.

Hogan didn't play much tho. (I've read)

And also only really started playing good in his 30s....and also almost lost his legs.....and would lose to Tiger in a putting contest....(although it IS part of the game...I'm not gonna try to put that out there as a real bigtime excuse)...

Truly can't take anything away from Tiger though. Just not Hogan either.

Ben Hogan, born in 1912, played in 292 PGA tour events from 1932 to at least 1967 (his last major the US Open T34th). He turned pro in 1929 at age 17. His 1st PGA event was in 1932 at age 20 and his 1st win was in 1940 at age 28. He did not play for 2 years because of WWII from '43-'45. From '45 to '49 he won 37 times. In '49 he was in a car crash. From 1950 to the end of his career he played about 7 events per year. His last win was in 1959 at age 47. (The Colonial)


Tiger Woods to date has played in 210 PGA events.

He is trying to make sure that his right wrist uncocks thru impact and maintain it in follow thru and finish.
Hank Haney told us that at the Australian Teaching Summit. This is how Hank teaches hinge action or as he calls it release.

That explains all the errant shots.

Too bad golf doesn't have a common language...

If all the gurus keep coming up with this stuff e.g right wrist uncocking and congruent shaft angles, the golfers will have to go somewhere to have the shanks fixed and therefore might be exposed to the common language.

I would hope that no-one, not even Haney, teaches anyone to cock his right wrist never mind uncock it during release.

Flipping Nora!
