Samenvatting:
For decades, professional golfers,
instructors, analysts, and fans around
the world have tried in vain to decipher
the secret of Ben Hogan's swing. The
legendary golf master spent most of his early
years trying to tame his notorious hook and, in
the process, invented the purest, most effective
swing in the history of the game. Though he
openly discussed some aspects of his fabled
secret, Hogan held back key revelations to be
shared in strict confidence with less than a
handful of devotees.
Now, for the first time, the complete model of
Hogan's secret swing technology is available to
golfers everywhere. In this unique volume,
Tom Bertrand shares the revelations about
Hogan's swing that PGA Tour player John
Schlee--one of the rare few to receive personal
instruction from Hogan--held in confidence
for so many years. Assisted by Printer Bowler,
Bertrand chronicles the remarkable era in his
life when he learned Hogan's techniques--first
as a student and later as an instructor--at
Schlee's Maximum Golf School during the
1980s. Having validated these teachings for
himself and with countless students, Bertrand
relates here how anyone who loves and
plays golf can bring Hogan's magic into his or
her own game.
All of Hogan's secrets--including the "missing
link" known only to Schlee and a handful of
others--are revealed, reviewed, and explained
here in Bertrand's Legendary Golf system,
featuring slow swing movements you can use
to correctly guide your swing through Hogan's
famed "chain action" sequence. Drawing upon
his exclusive access to Schlee's conversations and experiences with Hogan, Bertrand provides
a simple, step-by-step practice plan for
learning the key elements of Hogan's swing
that you can adopt in a short time, no matter
what your skill level.
The Secret of Hogan's Swing is both a testament
to Hogan's monumental gifts to golf and
an accessible guide to the elements of his swing.
This book complements and essentially
completes Hogan's classic Five Lessons: The
Modern Fundamentals of Golf. Finally there
are no more secrets.
