Power Golf by Ben Hogan a Review
First let me start by saying that I’m a huge fan of Ben Hogan. But the book is a disappointment to me when compared to his book “Ben Hogan’s Five Lessons : The Modern Fundamentals of Golf” which is a masterpiece. Power golf as you can probably tell by the cover is a bit antiquated.
He uses a lot of terms that most golfers now a days wouldn’t be familiar with. He also relies on stories and references that the average golfer won’t experience. He spends a whole 4 pages on putting. To me putting is half of the game. It certainly is half of most peoples score.
His other tips on wind play and uneven lies is more general then specific. Its a quick read and those with good swings will find validation in his words. Those who are struggling to improve should read “Ben Hogan’s Five Lessons : The Modern Fundamentals of Golf” it will do more to educate and inspire the average golfer.
Hey Greg, have you had a chance to read or examine the concepts in The final missing piece of Ben Hogan’s swing puzzle?
Interesting ideas that bring Hogans swing concepts into the modern era.
