I have seen some Lynn Blake vids here on KZitem and have enjoyed them and learned from them. It seems that those who are really familiar with TGM tend to embrace and understand what I am doing. I am sort of giving a "feel" to the "facts". I don't know that I am going to study TGM right now since I am around enough people who are experts in it to translate for me when necessary. Homer Kelley was also a big fan of "the dirt "..advocating that the swing was a "ground up" affair.

I don't teach, although enough people seem to be interested that I may start. I am not a pro. I knew all this many years ago. I am putting it out there so people don't get led down the garden path by people who don't know what they are talking about. I can make the swing because I understand the engine that drives the swing. This is not about aping positions. It is about understanding the motor and mechanics that drove Hogans motion and Moe's aswell. I'm just putting it out there.

I am aware of Gary Edwin and have watched and enjoyed several of his videos. Peter Thomson is one of my all time favorite golfers. The action that I am advocating is a little different in that I involve a swing of the hips and a more right side orientation on the backswing whereas Gary Edwin is advocating a reverse K at address and a more centered overall action with very little shift away from the ball. What he is teaching is no doubt very sound, but a little different than what I am up to.

Certainly, you would appreciate this. -- Hogan "built in" your "resist" concept via the Lead Foot Open a "Quarter to Half Turn" @ Swing Address (I think he experimented with the degree of angle.) -- Given this, what you say -- in your own words -- is true. -- Of course, I too am a Hogan Man. -- "No One" Ever Better" and the only man I know in golf who shared "all he knew" without necessarily providing the anatomical facts to support his point of view. -- Nevertheless, the Five Lessons will "forever" remain within the Annals of Golf. -- Can't thank Hogan enough for the Master-Piece. -- DrDom

"The Secret is in the Dirt." "Live tension" "You can't make those moves unless you have the right hold on the club." "It's in 5 Lessons if you know where to look." "Reverse every natural instinct you have and do just the opposite of what you are inclined to do and you will probably come very close to having a perfect golf swing." It's a puzzle. So, just start reading and you will realize that he never contradicted himself. It all makes sense, just give the "live tension" a direction.

The wider the stance I take the more lateral movement. I don't concern myself much about how far I move. Rather, I concern myself with keeping the pressure on the insides of my feet. I make a little move off of the ball to start my swing. That's what puts some early speed into the club head which is something that I like to do. From there I have something in my hands that I can feel and react to.

In your set up, do you believe, that narrowing your stance, and allowing your left knee to slack more on the backswing, will allow you to be even more in your right hip? Which in turn, can allow your shoulders to come from underneath as though the club head will go out to the right, but having such a great rotation left will allow one not to roll the club over, so severely. Keeping the face square for a longer period in the through swing.

I would like to use more than one camera and want something also that can catch the ballflight. I think I am going to do a bunch of things like I've already done and maybe then compile them. I don't want to get to pro with it.. Gets way too boring and contrived and no one learns anything then.

If you are hitting it pure, then I would not question it. Let the ballflight be the judge. We all have different strengths and weaknesses so what things feel like from one individual to another will vary. The ball is always the ultimate judge. If you are doing something that is at some small variance to what I am saying but it is working well then I would recommend not to question it. Re:the Coleman video. I have no idea how anyone can get their hands on a first generation copy.

I do not make an effort to roll the arm in the other direction on the downswing. Pronating the arm on the backswing allows me to keep the arms low and swing straight across the chest. Maintaining some cup in the left wrist helps to avoid a hook from this position. If you roll the clubface with the arms in both directions a hook is likely although there are other outcomes that also can enter the picture as well. In the simplest terms the cup reduces your ability to lever the club from the top.

So, if I understand this correctly, your bracing against your left side, but you're not on top of your left side, is that where the resisting is coming from? I tried this move, and if I did it correctly, my hips rotated in a circular motion rather than with any type of a lateral motion. On the downswing it felt like momentum guiding me through the swing up on my left side. Was that the correct action that I should have been feeling?

To be honest I used to pay attention to lifting the toes mostly only in practice and do it pretty much by habit now. I don't practice now but I also used to work on clawing the toes down too as Paul Bertholy advised. I do these things to chack my balance. I recommend toes up because it helps golfers feel what the weight moving back to the heel feels like and the act of lifting the toes immediately puts you generally in better posture and forces you to adopt a more balanced position at address

His FlightScope setup is really cool. I was kind of happy with the consistency of the numbers it was spitting out. I'm a little slower now that I am older, less fit and not really playing anymore but the thing that I always wanted really was just to be able to hit it on the button with a lot of frequency..... So having the smash factor numbers come up in a tight range was pretty pleasing to me. Would like to get on that machine one day with my gamers and see what those numbers look like..

this is a nice description of left hip rise which is a characteristic of the best swingers and a real power surge.Have you seen Gary Edwin's Right sided swing,he uses Hogan as one of his models aswell as Peter Thompson,he presets the right side like your doing,its a very effective and accurate swing model with no lateral movement,you just have to maintain body angles set at address,Rod Pampling uses it and his swing is Hoganesque,Butch Harmon calls it the swing of the FUTURE.

nice work Mike. your work on the front foot is as important on the back (imho.) it's that front foot resistance move that drops Hogan's hands/arms/club to that wonderful striking motion at the start of the downswing. whether or not Mr. Hogan had the foot action as conscious thoughts -- I do not know -- but I am confident that the rest of us can incorporate key Hogan action with an awareness of them.

Wow. This absolutely works. On downswing, feel like you're twisting the bottom of your left shoe from 12 o'clock to 3 o'clock. Creates left hip resistance which allows club to release before the left hip opens. Ball starts just right of target, attains nice height and low spin.

This move is why I switched to Moe's swing . My foot action to produce Hogan's swing was not good enough . Moe's swing required a lot of effort to learn how to set up the lower body but it was worth it . Everything Mike speaks about regarding the details of Hogans swing are right on IMO . Knowing and doing are to different ball games . He can make it happen !!

Mike is correct. And we are built very similarly and I plan to copy his swing exactly. I was already mostly there already and you have reaffirmed my belief that moving the upper spine back is a great move to make. Mike, I think there are two things you said that need to be hammered home. The upper spine is not swaying it is tilting (since the barrel of the pelvis is locked at the inside of the left foot, and the downswing must start with the left butt cheek sitting back and to the left.

I've been obsessed by golf for a couple of years, and you made me realize how much, which is almost not at all, I've been using my lower body. Somehow, I've been able to play well with an all upper body move, with hip rotation, but with no weight transfert. With this tip, I felt for the first time ever what a real pivot feels like. I was pure joy, I've hit the best shots of my life, in ONE practice. It's only a start. THANKS
