Product Description |
|
You can shoot in the 70's! Ben Hogan has long believed that any golfer with average coordination can learn to break 80 if he applies himself intelligently -- and here, with Herbert Warren Wind, and artist Anthony Ravielli, he tells you, step by step, just how to go about it. The greatest golfer of our generation has distilled his experience as teacher, player, and observer of golf into a series of richly illustrated "visual instructions" that not only can improve your game and lower your score, but also can help you get even more fun out of what many people already think is the most enjoyable game in the world. Each chapter, each tested "fundamental" is explained and demonstrated with amazing detail and clarity. It's as though the master himself were right there at your elbow, giving you a personal lesson with the same thought and care that has gone into his lifetime of golf. The Modern Fundamentals of Golf is no instant and easy shortcut. There is none. But with Ben Hogan as your pro, you can master these basic movements very quickly. And then you can go on to develop a correct, powerful swing that will repeat. As Ben Hogan says, it's only then that you'll "discover golf for the first time." |

Jas-store.com Review |
|
Ben Hogan's premise in this 1957 classic is driven home in bold letters: "THE AVERAGE GOLFER IS ENTIRELY CAPABLE OF BUILDING A REPEATING SWING AND BREAKING 80." Religions are founded on less, and Hogan's detailed analyses and illustrated demonstrations of grip, stance, posture, and the two basic components of the swing make up a sacred book. Though its very simplicity seems dated, this is the tome of technique that should serve as the foundation of every golf library. |

Outstanding Overview of the Fundamentals of Golf |
|
As one of the most skilled golfers of all time, one might expect material directly from Ben Hogan to be potentially complex and difficult to follow; however, this book is refreshingly easy to read and comprehend. In addition to very well articulated explanations on grips, stance, and swing mechanics, Ben Hogan's Five Lessons also contains many superbly hand drawn and detailed illustrations that permit one to easily understand each lesson. Repetition of the fundamentals will always prove to be most critical factor in any sport (meaning you have to get out there and play to make it work); however, unless you are already at a professional level of play, utilizing Ben Hogan's advice provided in this book will certainly improve your game...as it has mine. |

I picked this up to give my golf game a little boost and it didn't disappoint. Hogan simplifies many of the most essential elements of golf, including grip, stance, ball position, backswing, downswing, etc. All this info comes in a tight package and makes an excellent reference guide. |
