He said hand, and I do think Hogan was precise with words. Interestingly, he told Gardner Dickinson he liked the right leg slightly closed at address so his hands could go in, not out. I think he was able to design a backswing that went in, back and up automatically in his mind, hence his focus on plane. In order to keep from crossing the line at the top and coming too inside on the downswing, he overrotated the lfw on the backswing, combined with the weak grip, fade every time. His sweetspot control must have been superlative. He was an amazing athlete, had a simple golf swing that he tweaked with some complicated things others cannot consistently pull off. Personally I love the Power Golf swing more than the post accident swing. Someone once asked him how to shorten their swing. He said get hit by a bus. The guy was a cutup.
