Accessories: Editorial Review: Product Description: Ben Hogan covers the Fundamentals, Grip, Stance, Posture, First & Second part of the swing and a short summary and review. Amazon.com Review: Ben Hogan's premise in this 1957 classic is driven home in bold letters: "THE AVERAGE GOLFER IS ENTIRELY CAPABLE OF BUILDING A REPEATING SWING AND BREAKING 80." Religions are founded on less, and Hogan's detailed analyses and illustrated demonstrations of grip, stance, posture, and the two basic components of the swing make up a sacred book. Though its very simplicity seems dated, this is the tome of technique that should serve as the foundation of every golf library. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Outstanding Overview of the Fundamentals of GolfAs one of the most skilled golfers of all time, one might expect material directly from Ben Hogan to be potentially complex and difficult to follow; however, this book is refreshingly easy to read and comprehend.

Rating: - Good Learning Tool But Dangerous In The Wrong HandsBen Hogan's Five Lessons should be a must in every golfer's library. However, I believe this book can be dangerous in the wrong hands. Hogan appears to have been ahead of his time on some issues discussed in Five Lessons so there is a lot of good information to take away from this book. However, not everything he discusses is appropriate for every player. It takes a discerning eye to figure out what would be beneficial to an individual player and what would be detrimental. The book is ... Read More Rating: - Wow!Amazing how much this 50 yr old book changed my swing for the better. This book was easy to read and apply on the range. |
