Thanks, hjack. I appreciate your putting up this thread and inspiring me to post!

Homer Kelley always said, "I thrive on questions." And so do I. It absolutely is the way I work best.

Tonight as I clicked through the sequence, it was the above three photos that jumped out at me and seemed worthy of our readers' time. I did have other thoughts, most of which would be rather pedestrian to readers of these threads.

I'll click through again and see what might add value.

If i may
Lynn

There is no doubt that the readers of these threads and others are very

accomplished and constantly learning about the golf machine.

Because of my rehab i have spent quite a bit of time at home.

I notice this site has many visitors, and to see photos of one of our

greats,ben hogan and add commentary by you ...will be special.. not only to golf machine folks but golf enthusiasts who heard so much about Hogan and now get to understand him a bit more....

what do they say?? one man's ------- is another man's gold

The magic move as Mr. Penick called it. Get this right and you can become a good ballstriker (assuming semi-educated hands). In the slot better than anybody in the history of the game perhaps:

The reason you can't sustain the lag is because you are so eager to make the club move fast (a reaction to the intent of "hitting it far"). So on a full shot you throw it away too early, which doesn't happen for your short chip. (bts)

Did you notice the person shagging balls for him dressed in red?

Could this be his private practice area between the fairways at Shady Oaks?

I noticed that he wasn't in all the shots . . . I'm betting that Hogan took him out sniper style.

A fantastic sequence could be made from the down the line shots . . .

There will never be another as cool as Hogan . . .
