You for sure have seen that footage of hogan at the dude's house in carribean or wherever that's at? I think he's getting the #3 pressure point . . . fleshy pad between the first two knuckles on the aft side of the shaft. Mr. Hogan's Right Forearm Flying Wedge alignment was impecable . . . so I think he's getting the most support there . . . also swinging on the Elbow Plane he had his right arm working at pretty much 90 degrees to the axis as Mr. Kelley describes the Elbow Plane in the 2nd and 3rd edition. That dude was slap maxing out his physics and his geometry. Also a big piece of keeping the bend in his right wrist was how far forward he went with his hips. I've ordered your book and look forward to reading it.
Don't forget setup and angles too, he was a master at setup. Here is a real photo that might help to the very elementry drawing I made about setup to plane. Also, Thank You to your last comment!

School me on your analysis of the set up angles please sir. I can't remember exactly how this goes but anyway . . .when Mr. Hogan was older I think someone asked him if he had learned anything new about the swing he said "no" but that he had "learned something about ball position." You got any insight on that at all?
I noticed on some of the other forums you were a Duval fan . . . how would you compare Duval to Hogan? I see some definite similarities in their pivots and how the club exits . . what about the grip? I agree that Hogan's left hand isn't as "weak" as people talk about but Duval had a way stronger left hand and right hand I think right?
Also . . . what would you do to fix Duval? I know one thing his hands are no where close to being as "deep" now as the were in his hayday. I'd love to see him win again.

It's a mind trick to most players this is why I did the drawing from the players view. I was trying to find a video I had see of Tiger wearing a hat camera and you see what he see's. Most get freek out... All I know is Hogan learned that he could do the same thing with a different ball position as he got older by control of the right hand.

I based my Book off left to right players with Hogan and Duval as the main visual, I am a huge Duval fan and have communicated what I see wrong to him several months ago. Duval's grip is strong and he rotated more than Hogan, if he had a weak left hand he would be out in right field then, Now is a different story!

Well, sevral months ago I think DD did not get the club rotated open enough like he use to and in case was not as deep, so he fought the lefts. He still pured the ball though when he did not miss it, and now what him and Puggy are working on is starting to show results. His bad now is he hangs back some with that reverse c... I think DD will win again and might even make another run to the top, but not this year, unless he pulls a couple deep rounds out of his... and plays half way decent the other two. It will come though, he is on the right track.
