just a link? huh? no quotes or some perspective from your side?

The advertisements intrigue me much more than the article....

I dusted off my Hogan book last week to refresh myself on some things and I've already started to turn things back around (it's been going pretty crappy for a while now). I don't recall this "secret" being in the book and I'm glad it isn't because I don't like it and, in fact, it was the first thing my pro "corrected" when I took my first lesson a couple years ago. I don't fight a hook, just ...

Great article from 54 years ago. LOL! If you fight a hook like I do, it'll definitely be worth a shot. I'll give it a go tomorrow for sure. Hogan says in the article that the move will be disastrous for anyone that doesn't have the mechanics to hook a ball. If you fade already, this isn't for you. My ballstriking is so bad right now, trying this out can't hurt all that much. It ...

he never gave away his secret in that article, it was all a bit of a con depends who you believe re this, his caddie Jody Vasquez maintained he told him his secret was all in his right knee and how much to 'kick it' during his swing, ie he could control distance with his irons by simply moving his right knee more or less, and this was to within inches at 150 yards. Others have said its his...

His secret was most likely convincing everyone else that he had one.

dave. replied 1 month, 3 weeks ago
he didn't need to convince anyone about anything after they stood behind him hitting balls

gwlee7 replied 1 month, 3 weeks ago
I agree with that dave but, saying you have a "secret" will get eveyone wondering about what it is.

dave. replied 1 month, 3 weeks ago
He didn't say he had a secret, he was asked what his secret was, or what is the one thing he would say was 'the' secret to his ball striking, and he refused to answer, thats how the myth grew. His infamous answer was actually 'go an dig it out of the dirt yourself', which is probably what the supposed secret really was. Whatever you need, you can only get with hard work in this game.

From a habitual hooker of the ball, this 'secret' worked wonders for my driving this weekend. Not quite fades every time, but just nice tight draws mixed in with some straight balls, and only a couple of fades. It simply worked great with the driver. Irons I am hoping will come around, but have given up on the 'secret' for the time being with the irons. I have never been straighter over 3 rounds as I was Saturday, Sunday,...

Ironically.. I've always hit fades with my irons, and my driver. My 3-wood is borderline slice at times, but a high cut is being gentle. Last 3 weeks, I can't hardly buy a shot to go right of center. I can get some long/mid irons to tug a little right of center, but stay high and straight. My 3-wood? Cranking it farther than I ever have, and I'm fighting a disgustingly nasty yank with it. Hogan had a point I think, and it was to...
