No throwaway here. The left wrist is still flat. The #3 accumulator has been rolled post impact so you see a difference between the angle of the left arm and clubshaft.

You didn't put the quotations in there did you? should pull up. You can put Snead's and Jones' name in there too and get some good stuff.

Great photo, O.B.

An insider's glimpse into one of the Great Moments In Sport:

The Scene

A nondescript hotel room at a 1940s PGA Tour stop somewhere east of the sun and west of the moon. Inside, Ben Hogan is practicing his putting as his wife, Valerie, looks on, knitting a new spoon headcover. Ben hits two putts from ten feet. The first is long and to the left side of the suitcase, and the other is short and right. He goes to window (three stories up) and opens it. Returning to his putting, he steadies the blade behind the ball . . .

Ben: My putting's killing me! I can't even putt to a freakin' suitcase! One more bad stroke, and I'm out that window.

Valerie: Ben . . . Get a grip. Tomorrow, just hit it closer to the hole.

Ben: I've got a grip. My left hand is . . .

Valerie: Oh, stop it, Ben. That's not what I meant.

Ben: So, what did you mean?

Valerie: Just what I said: Tomorrow, just hit it closer to the hole!

Ben: Tell me again why I married you?

Valerie: C'mon, Ben. I'm okay with the open stance and the wristy stroke. But, please, take off those silly cufflinks. They won't help.

Ben: But I like these cufflinks!

Valerie: :rolleyes: Tomorrow, just hit it closer to the hole, and you'll see.

Ben: That's all there is to it, just hit it closer? Are you serious?

Valerie: [Setting down her knitting.] Ben, look at these high heels . . . do I look serious?

Ben: :shock: You gotta point there, Val. [Puts down his putter and closes the window]. Let's see what tomorrow brings!

And the rest, as they say, is history.

:)

We are going to have some fine Gallery here at LBG.

Here is another for your consideration. A personal fave of mine of Moe. Something tells me his right elbow and hip aren't going to collide, eh?

I have no idea how anyone could hit it solid with a grip that weak. It's physically impossible for me. Amazing.


BTW, I love the position in this pic. Maybe one day... :)

More Mystery Than 'The Secret'

Thanks, elliskit. And hg, too, for the original posting!

However, something's going on here . . .

This is not the original Life Magazine version (illustrated by photos versus Ravielli drawings). Instead, it is a Sports Illustrated 'do-over' with the same date, August 8, 1955. It's a great piece, of course, and I am delighted to see it, but . . .

Did it really happen?

I didn't think Ravielli joined the Hogan / Wind team until Five Lessons, a 1957 project.

Hmmm . . .

hg, did you buy the actual magazine (as stated in your post), or did you buy an article purported to have been published in that magazine?

Or was there indeed a simultaneous Life Magazine / Sports Illustrated publication of essentially the same 'Secret' article (but by different authors and illustrators)?

Scratchin' my head over this one!

:scratch:

"Hogan Reveals His Secret" - by Herbert Warren Wind, Sports Illustrated 8-8-1955

"This is my Secret; Ben Hogan finally reveals the mysterious maneuver that made him a champion" - Life Magazine also dated 8-8-1955 with cover.

Red Sox slugging legend Ted Williams shook Hogan's hand and commented to someone that it was like being gripped by five bands of steel. Hogan also advocated a FIRM grip.

I think he was referring to how many knuckles were showing on the grip. But if its FLV then its all good :D
Who am I to question a great ball striker like Hogan anyways :naughty:

It seems to time out. These are copyright protected images so maybe its a protection thing.

Go to "corbis.com" , do a search for "ben hogan". Click on the images to enlarge them, save them, read the original captions.
