Hogan and EA

Did Ben Hogan Use Extensor Action?

Where did he write about his application of Extensor Action, if he did use it?

Hogan wrote about keeping one arm extended in the swing at all times in 5 Easy lessons.

After consideration- I do believe that Hogan had alignment elements that produced ALL the transcribed elements (1-4) of 6-B-1-D but I also believe that Hogan would have described the feel and alignments in a "different" way. That does not necessarily make either feel superior only different. And TGM provides, in fact encourages , such individuality.

Hogan said that he wished he had three right hands. I believe there were some right sided drive loading going on.

Which is a bit similar to extencior action except that it is active and not just structural support.

Has anyone found any statement by Hogan that refers to what he meant by 3 right hands? If the Pivot Drives the Right Forearm and the Right Hand Drags the Club, would someone say that they want 3 right hands. What if you were pulling a heavy cart?

My #3 Pressure Point, on occasion, returns to the aft side of the shaft. When that lucky moment happens, I too would like 3 right hands. It "Feels" like my right hand was going along ok, and then suddenly went under-water. It's additional resistance to overcome. It's like my right hand is slicing through the water with a right hand Karate chop, and then, when my Right Hand rotates and faces down the Angle of Approach, it's like trying to "Push" an open palm directly against the water.

I don't know; I'm thinking again.

Now I'm hopelessly confused. Isn't the #3 pp ALWAYS supposed to be on the aft side of the shaft?

I think (that qualifies my comment) that Hogan talks about this where he mentiones the "two handed basketball throw"-AND- trying to break the bulls eye. like "drag the wet mop". I am more and more convinced that #3 pp is ONLY for sensing. IT NEVER moves the lever assembly. If #3 pressure gets to high (a pressure) it is due to poor release. When the impact bag is used- Hold against the bag- not push the club head against the bag but hold your lever assembly against the bag- ALL the way down to your feet.

None of this is Hogans EA

Again - just my feel
