  • What Hogan Really Did

    By Luther Blacklock To make short work of hammering a nail the hammer needs to be close to the ideal line of the strike and be dead on it at impact.

  • The Law Is Plane

    By Luther Blacklock The concept or application of a swing plane is indeed a 'Principle'. A man striking a fence post into the ground will swing the hammer up and down in a vertical or perpendicular 'plane'. He can choose to address or stand around the post in any one of 360 degrees –...

  • The Grip – The Most Fundamental of all of Ben Hogan's Fundamentals

    By Luther Blacklock As Mr. Hogan himself famously stated at the outset of his book, "good golf begins with a good grip." Hogan's recommendation that a golfer should adopt the 'Overlapping' or Vardon grip (in which the little finger on the right hand overlaps the left forefinger...
