Lynn,

I am almost certain that is Jackie Burke. I have seen many pics of him wearing his hat like that. He was also good friends with Hogan. I will ask him next time I go to Champions. But I would bet money it was him.

Merry Christmas

Thanks for the insight, Chris. And thanks for giving me Jackie's book It's Only A Game a couple of years back when I taught with you at the Rob Noel Golf Academy! You had just come back from a visit with him and had more than one tale to tell.

Merry Christmas to you and all the gang at Money Hill!

Thanks Rhythm

Please ask him and if he recalls the subject matter. Looks to be right forearm takeaway. The odd thing about this footage to me, is the absolutely astonished look on the fellow. You see it more in the video than the photos I posted. The gentlemen in the suit also waves his right forearm around in response.

Jack Burke having known Hogan for years at this point must have been hearing something for the first time, something that amazed him and hopefully something he'd like to share with us.

Im not really suggesting it is a secret or anything but it would be a really great piece of history to uncover.
