Ben Hogan - Secret Move?

In 1949, Doctor's told Ben Hogan that he will never be able to golf again, that it was an impossible task. Needless to say, competitive golf was out of the question. Despite this, Hogan made a phenomenal recovery. Hogan's come back saw him add another 6 majors to his already impressive record.

The question then is if there is really a secret. Personally, I believe there is. I have been fortunate to have come across an individual that has told me how to do it. Whether it is really Hogan's secret is for anyone to judge. But during the process of incorporating this into my swing, I was given one advise to start.

Read Hogan's Five Lessons - The Modern Fundamentals of Golf. He's advise to me? Read Chapter One. Read it. Read it. Read it. But to through incorporate Hogan's secret move, one must have the fundamentals properly incorporated in the swing. I will post more on this topic as we go along. (P.S. I would say it takes 6 weeks for the proper grip to be ingrained into your swing).

In the meantime, "The Secret is in the dirt" :)
