according to the folks on the SA. Moe met with Bertholy several times a year for some twenty years near Pinehurst. Whether Moe was a student or a friend is what the debate is about.
Great video. Question: It looks to me as though Hogan's shoulders were a little bit open but his hips were closed at address. Am I correct?
I am pretty sure you will find his shoulders are square to his intended plane line. The hips dont really look closed to me, only right foot being dropped back that gives that impression.
Great Videos!!!!!! Thanks YODA.........
"This is the Downstroke Waggle of 3-F-5. In my opinion, it is far and away the best (if not the only) cure for that genetic deformity of the Golf Stroke --the Flat Downstroke Shoulder Turn (and its resulting 'Outside-In' Path of the Hands) [10-13-B #3]." - Don't I know this problem, that is why Homer says to practice the moves with out a club and indoors.....
You go to the range and after some shots, you mind is on how far you can hit it instead of tracing the plane line.....................fyi
Having the right foot back seemed to make it really easy to take the club back on an inside and flat plane....which seems to feel most natural to me. To my surprise, I did not hit a bunch of hooks, in fact I think I only hit one hook and it was purely from flipping my hands at the bottom.
I tried it without a ball. IMO, it enables you to start the downswing from the back foot toe instead of the heel. That is a good position for a hard hip rotation. In addition to hip tilt and weight shift. When the back foot is parallell to line of flight, It's harder to rotate the hip.
