"They write lengthy, tortuous books on the subject - books that would cross a physicist's eyes. Such tomes need an engineer's dictionary for reference, and have been held up as the major factor responsible for destroying the careers of at least two professional tour players, leaving the once successful competitior talking to himself about the lost or stressed levers when he, before all others, would admit that his mind should be absorbed with the image of his target and not the mechanics of the swing.
In the words of the Immortal Bugs Bunny: "He don't know us very well, do he?"

How to Belt It !
If any of you have a copy of former GSEB Mike Hebron's book entitled, "Building and Improving Your Golf Mind, Golf Body, Golf Swing", the Hogan article is located on pages 55-64 as well.

Make that GSED, not GSEB. Why former? I do not know. Even when he reached the highest degree attainable within TGM community, he never advertised himself as an A.I.
