Nice swing! Do you watch any of Mike's, AKA "Sevam1" videos on youtube? He and Steve Elkington are working together to release some vids on Hogans "action". Do you go with the sensation of your right leg screwing into the ground as an ancor point? Thanks.

Have a look at my other videos....I've been working with Elk since April this year.

Very nice. You should have used that swing in major competitions. Can I ask, do youdo anything conscious with the hands on the backswing? Thanks .

@kimmerlaw

Yes, I take them straight in toward the center of my body....then everything reacts to that.

Do you have any wood swings?  Also do you tend to draw the ball?

[martinez19696]

Check in my other videos...there's one titled 'Ben'. I don't tend to Draw it, I tend to fade it although my ball-flight is pretty straight.

Bad night with computer: meant to finish- I will post a message where you can view my video when I finish it.

Retry: there is one thing that you are missing. I am preparing a video that will explain, but it is not finished yet. Good job.

Nice action. It is very hoganesque. I must say it seems like an odd endeavor to try to make one's swing as closely like someone else's. Did you put this song on just to be ironic? I've watched a lot of Hogan swings though and you've just about nailed down his action. The only thing that sticks out at me a little is you recock your wrists sooner in the follow through; Hogan's hands were almost left/past his head in the follow through before his wrists hinged.

Thank you so much or the response, but I'm having trouble understanding what you are really saying. I seem to see your left hand cupped at the top of your backswing, like Ben Hogan. What does it mean to"take them straight in toward the center of my body?" Are you talking about hinging your wrists inward? Or simply pulling your hands inward towards your body? (Seems that would collapse your arc). I would be grateful if you could articulate more precisely.
