hi sevam, i find your knowledge of golf very interesting butyou have to admit, whoever is filming you has no clue about golf.
I am sorry, he didn’t gave it all out~~~ there’s a six lesson in his book~~~~i am happy that I brought it.
connection with the ground – check out snead videos. he says ‘you roll your feet.’
biggest difference between pros and amateur: knee flex and soft arms.
Thank you for sharing all your research>FREE!!
I did not purchase your program sorry>you gave the secret away in your many tubes!!!!
P.S. I called Callaway last week (customer service) they do not see anything on the horizon as far as Hogan clubs>shame on Callaway……
your kidding ???
This guy is amazing!! I enjoy incredibly the part at 5:54 when he say “this was, this was, this was…”.
He seems to be a little crazy in the final part: “When Ben Hogan died…” ahahah (forgive me, please)
Ever watched him hit a golf ball? He’s got more of a clue than most anybody who swings a club.
has,nt got a clue!
you are so right about the pull and push. its clear to me now – Switter is the way forward.
Pure passion!
it seems like you kno what your talking about can you take a look at my swing and tell me what you think i have a weak grip and i have trouble hooking the ball
I really love your videos! But I gotta say I can’t stop chuckling at that last part.
“When Ben Hogan died, *points finger at interviewer* my heart fell out of golf. That’s the truth. *points again and whispers* That’s the truth.”
He really is fireside, nice! Love watching these vids.
I have never, ever heard anyone explain Moe Norman and Ben Hogan’s swings as clearly, succinctly and thoroughly as you have.
Even though I’ve read Hogan’s Five Lessons four or five times over the past twenty years, YOUR explanation made the light bulbs finally turn on! Thank you sincerely for your research and sharing!
I can hardly wait to get to the range tomorrow and start digging it out of the dirt.
Maxxsee & tigercatcheshair are the reasons why cousins shouldn’t be allowed to marry. Keep up with the study and instruction Sevam1! I was fortunate to see Mr. Hogan practice in Houston in the early 70’s and the sound of the ball coming off his clubface was unreal! Hearing the sound of Sevam1’s shots, only a fool would not pay attention to what Sevam1 has to say. For maxxsee & tigercatcheshair (oh puhleeze), LISTENING MEANS LEARNING! Keep digging in the dirt Sevam1!
I think you have an amazing understanding of the golf swing and all fundamentals.
You have broken down Hogan’s incredible mechanics as good if not better than anyone I have ever come across.
EXCELLENT …… thank you …
I don’t get it
why do you try to copy Moe Norman so much in your behaviour? I find it kind of repulsive. It is obvious that you are trying to emulate your bodylanguage and your way of speaking to fit moe normans in some points. Just stop it and tell it your way pls. Moe norman was the greatest ballstriker ever!
actually jones said that moron
hogan didnt invent golf but he and moe are the few people the world has ever seen that could hit a golf ball equal to or better than iron byron. With all the technology they had in Bens era compared to now, its funny how no one can compare to him.
Moe Norman said it’s all happens in the 5 1/2 inches between your ears. If that’s true – then what’s happening between Sevam 1’s ears is amateur’s hour.
Sevam 1 – ( violins playing…) ” My heart went out of golf when Hogan died ” (?!). WTF ! I didn’t know that Hogan invented golf or was the reason for enjoying the game. Were you counting the hours until his death ? Have another beer Sevam0.
This is like some sad little fraternity of Dungeon’s & Dragons nerds that like to talk more about golf (creating hierarchy, egos, self worth and desperately trying to socialize by pretending to ‘OWN’ the mysterious golf swing) than play golf.
TRUTH – Hogan’s swing ONLY worked with his personally DOCTORED clubs. Check it out – pros have hit his driver since and it goes like a banana. Only Tiger after many swings could compensate for it. It was that skewed, PERIOD. IT’S ALL IN YOUR HEAD. Truth.
i felt the move and im amazed how easy it is,iv hit solid shots ever since,i dont even havet to think about anything else with what my upper body is doing or hands,it all happens by itself..thanks sevam1 for everything were else can i get anymore lessons??your a genius
I think if Tiger Woods changed his swing to be more like Moe or Hogan, he would not have had three knee surgeries. No one can ever deny of course that Woods is not a great, great player, but I can guarantee he’ll have to modify his swing somewhat.
About The Move. You sayed ravielli shaded in important areas, I was looking on page 83 on the thrid picture of ben hogan swinging and I have spotted shading on his left knuckles or around that area. Does this mean anything.
