Hogan was a groundbreaker in terms of the "modern" swing. But I really believe he was also reacting to changes in the game at that time, including equipment advances, courses, and even clothing, that allowed for innovation. In the early 90's there was a leap in equipment technology that saw similar changes in the swing for the up-comers, and we see the same today with the likes of Rory and Bubba. The best athletes will find the best swing for the environment they operate within...
Can we please dispense with the 'Ben Hogan is God' rhetoric? Hogan developed his grip, stance, posture, alignment, ball position, cupped left wrist at the top, aggressive hip turn in the downswing (he said he just turned his left hip, even though he had an aggressive lateral move), the bowed left wrist at impact, and the wicked extension in the follow through to finish because he had to get rid of the HOOKS. Then when he found the solution, he worked his butt off to perfect it. Nothing more.

You have a nice swing, but it´s nothing like Hogan´s. Your swing seems very manufactured.

Fowler swings nothing like Hogan. Fowler swings flat, that´s about the only similarity he has with Hogan.
