Not trying to be difficult but I don't think Homer Kelly had a pattern for Hogan's swing. With 144 variations thoughout the 24 components I suggest it is there! TGM says 4 barrel, or 2-M-3 what ever else but Hogan hit the golf ball fully with his right side and thats pretty much why people don't like to talk about Hogan's swing and if they do I find them to be way off base. The old way of TGM talked about a bowed left wrist now they have chaged it to flat. Flat or "flat? "Hogan used his extrem flex bowing the back of the right wrist to bow his left through impact. This also got the club in a layed off lag position while the right elbow was getting into place for Hogan to hit it as hard as he wanted with his right side. Hogan was not a swinger or a hitter he was a rotary pusher of the dominant right side. Are we talking right arm participation here? If he pushed...he was a hitter! I am pretty sure that you are limited to pushing or pulling, and in some cases an unfortunate combination of both! I explained this in my book that some of you have read and asked me about. I have hit Hogan's personal clubs and they are 6 flat, I am sure this helped the Wee Ice Mon with the on plane right forearm on the elbow plane with a grounded heel to set open, You do not want that club face looking left, especially with a full tilt horizontal hinge action extrem stiff, and thick grips, Homer would have approved on both accounts! with a coat hanger it felt like set at 5:25. I have talked to people that played with him on a regular basis, pro's that played against him, and was able to view some private films of him swinging on the range. The Ben Hogan Estate went as far to authorise me with full rights to Hogan's name and image. What a coup! Congratulations! I'm not saying that I am the only person that knows Hogan's swing or that what I say is the final word but rather a lot of people get Hogan wrong on what he did in the golf swing and they are trying to make you believe what they do from the facts they have gathered from photos, or youtube video which all but one I have seen don't show a strait angle of Hogan from a DTL which most base there facts off of. Sorry if I come off in any wrong way I am just trying to help myself understand others point of views to my own and express what I think as well.

congrats on the book...hope it does well
