Booklegger - The Secret of Hogan's Swing

The Secret of Hogan's Swing
Book Description: (From the publisher)

Hogan spent most of his early years trying to tame his notorious hook, but in the process he invented and refined the most effective, repeatable swing in the history of golf. For decades, professional golfers, instructors, analysts, sports writers, and fans around the world tried in vain to decipher the secret of Hogan's swing and the unprecedented success that it produced. Told in half fable and half instructional style, this book finally reveals the secret of his swing.

What is Hogan's secret? It is all revealed in the "Legendary Golf System" - a finely orchestrated system of slow swing movements which you'll use to correctly position your hands, arms, elbows, hips and knees. Instructions, practice exercises, and tips for a range of handicaps will show you how you can finally cure your slice or hook.

What makes this book especially fun is the fable-like aspect of the secrets being passed from mentor to student. Hogan, who famously hated to give lessons, took John Schlee under his wing. During the early 70s, Hogan shared insights and techniques with Schlee while they played and talked golf. Schlee understood that everything that passed between them would be kept in strict confidence - and he used this knowledge as raw material to develop and refine his own golf game. During Hogan's lifetime he never publicly revealed anything. Schlee then left to Bertrand the task of making sure that the revelations he had kept under cover would be chronicled in this book. This book shares the conversations, the experiences, and the knowledge of Hogan's secret, including "the missing link" - never before available to golfers.
