  • Rich Deep Accurate and All You Need to know to play scratch golf is in here.

    Take it from a golfer that has been collecting instructional books and studying the golf swing for over 25 years...this book is THE ONE !!! This “ thin” simple looking book has priceless illustrations, phenomenal content , and enough meat to keep you busy learning and perfecting your swing for many many years. Ben Hogan was one of , if not the best ball striker of all time and he shared a lot of his knowledge in this book . He also makes you dig and find hidden truths for yourself that are in between the lines. You have to read it and study it over and over again because it is so “ deep” and full of nuggets. Worth the price for the illustrations alone.

  • Ben Hogan's Five Lessons

    I never took golf lessons and just hacked my way around the course. Reading this book and implementing Ben's five fundamentals immediately took ten strokes off my game and helped me enjoy playing. I have bought several copies and give them to friends I see struggling. When my game starts to slip I go back and re-read Ben's lessons. Great book, easy to read and understand. Excellent illustrations. Highly recommended.

  • Still good

    Hogan's book was good 50 years ago and remains so today. For beginners it provides a foundation. Worked for me. Gave one to each of my sons in law who are picking up the game.

    The book has been magic for so many golfers. New and experienced ones. Take the time, with a club in hand, and read the chapter, The Grip. Play out holding the club reading along as if Hogan himself were talking to you. It soon will click and you will instantly realize how important his Grip message is. This is why you will see this tiny book on all the great golfer’s book shelves. Technology will never replace Hogan’s, The Grip.

  • Practice..practice..practice. Read about Moe Norman,s practice regimen on you tube.

    Nobody and I mean nobody tells it like Ben Hogan. 5 main teachings..1 per week. Recommend you read and do ONLY one at a time. Memory is a key component to successful golf techniques. Memory can and does easily get confused even when we don,t thinkso. Trust me 1 skill study at a time and get it mastered before moving on.

  • Fundamental truth

    This book makes great sense. Ben Hogan, his writer and illustrator are concisely perfect. If you are a believer of fundamentals, this is the only golf book you ever need. Any teacher could not present this much concise info as quickly NEVER.
