Yoda - very good point about Hogan. That demonstrates my foolishness and yet again demonstrates to me that I should never make strict rules that are not 100% biomechanically solid. Hogan slides his pelvis quite a lot left-laterally in my photo series and that moves his torso/head slightly leftwards. That's obviously not a problem for the golfer who is without doubt one of the greatest ball strikers in the history of golf.
It is interesting that VJ Trolio shows in his book that Hogan didn't have that much slide later in his career. In fact, he states that Hogan didn't have any slide during the downswing because he moved his pelvis left-laterally in the backswing. I am still conflicted by this issue and I wonder if there was a major change in his pelvic movements later in his life, or whether we are having a problem with camera angle distortion issues.
