SWING SECRET the HOGAN ROLL

[@bobrichter6]

LOVE THIS VIDEO. Grip as weak as possible, just enough to be uncomfortable, a left hand 'under' feeling. Then open and close as aggressively as possible. This really effects the shoulders and power greatly, gets the shoulders involved in rotating not dipping, but it's counter intuitive. Tremendous compression and power source. 3 right hands Hogan described. YOU HAD A PRIOR VIDEO RE: 'SUPER WEAK GRIP', THIS IS THE KEY, FROM IT FLOWS EVERYTHING ELSE. Some call this the secret of the flat left wrist. The best way to describe this is that it forces a turning of the shaft with forearm rotation, not the clubface. Screwdriver move. Strong grips tend to allow flipping of the club face. You cannot hook the ball with a super weak grip , forearm rotation, & supination into impact. Face is very stable with the super weak grip and then SUPINATION CAN WORK ITS MAGIC........you can then let everything go in rotation into the ball, hold nothing back. Can't do that with a neutral or strong grip........

[@MiracleSwingExperience]

Whoa, Bob. You are blowing my mind. It feels unnatural for me after years of holding off the face but it makes so much sense now! Thank you.

This is in Ben Hogan’s Five Lessons. In the Foreword. Mr. Hogan says “I rolled the face of the club open away from the ball. That cupped my left wrist. Coming down, the face was moving so fast I couldn’t turn it over and hook. I was rotating the club like a baseball bat, and the faster I could rotate it, the more distance I got. I would roll the face open as fast and as far as I could. I could hit the ball straight and father. “

This works but honestly, I don't think Christo has the proper backswing for this move.

[@mrsmartypants_1]

Fantastic analysis Christo. Opening the club face on the takeaway is freeing. Your swing becomes more fluid. It also allows the right elbow to stay tucked in to your right side without inhibiting the backswing. Everything that is Mr. Hogan’s gorgeous fluid swing. You hit the key at the 7:55 mark where you state Hogan opens the face on the takeaway but that the club head stays outside of the hands. This is where hackers who flail open the face on the takeaway go awry.

[@FrankD-i2y]

Such a great video...THANK YOU! I have been struggling with this very thing for YEARS. I was told, early on, "NEVER OPEN THE FACE ON THE TAKEAWAY. NEVER." Glad to see that I was not alone in fighting with this over the years. It just seems so much more natural to roll open on the takeaway. No wonder I could never hit fairway woods or hybrids off the turf...it's almost impossible to do when your takeaway has a closed clubface. Far left anyone?!?! I was an 8-ish GHIN index and have now gotten down to 5+. This was a tremendous help. Thank you again.

[@jasonpieters]

I roll slightly after reading Mr Hogans book and articles. The key for me is the pointer and thumb on my left/lead hand. I feel like I am twisting a knob. Like on a stereo. As soon as my downswing starts I start twisting the fast and harder the swing the harder and quicker I twist. It is a timing thing. I keep the face closed until P2 and then allow the face to open as I hinge without trying to either open or close it. As my downswing starts I start twisting with the left and throwing with the right (from Mike Austin’s teachings). The twist and Austin style throw and pivot square it up. I’m not great but I can hit a consistent 1 yard fade and the smother hook when I screw it up. Thanks for this video and all the videos over the years.

[@tomswanston]

Christo! I’m so pleased you’re now using the Hogan roll 😃 I’ve always found it really difficult and unnatural to keep the club facing the ball, as per modern teaching. It’s much easier for me to roll the face open. As soon as I allowed myself to let it roll open, I could swing much more freely and hit it better. Enjoy your the next level of your golf!

[@MiracleSwingExperience]

Thank you so much, Tom. I wrote a new novel called "A Links Tale." You might enjoy it!

[@Ericksonbellgolf]

Thats crazy. I just started working on that. What I discovered is that its actually not super open when you do that. It just puts the club square in relation ship to impact.

[@MiracleSwingExperience]

Right? It’s kind of crazy!

[@charlespatterson3936]

In my first golf lesson in 1992 at Tony Lema Golf Course in Northern California, a old instructor taught me this swing which I played with for twenty years until another instructor changed my swing. When you find it, the feel off the club face is ridiculously awesome and compression is sweet.

[@djpoints]

Outstanding demonstration of such a vital aspect of the swing! And incredibly valuable examples of Mr. Hogan in action! This move does absolutely facilitate the most natural swing of the club. And not only more elegant as a result, it's also produces that ideal tensionless and body friendly motion. And it really locks Hogan's magic right elbow right in place throughout. And one more thing to add, which i learned from Hogan's classic Five Lessons is that he really really emphasized to supinate that lead wrist at impact. He was rather indifferent to its position at the top (and the wide spectrum of this position among tour players suggests same), but as your demonstration indicates he actually pronates (cups) wrist early (instantly). What ive found is that this is the key to altering trajectory. The earlier you cup that lead wrist, the more likely it will be cupped at top, which leads to a lower ball flight than if you were to initiate swing with a bowed lead wrist. The latter produces a slightly more vertical swing. *And again, this all assumes you do as Hogan implores and get that least wrist bowed by impact* . And this directly relates to Hogan's other MAJOR lesson, which is the unwinding of the hips in transisiton completes almost the entire downswing because it keeps magic elbow locked in slot and naturally unwinds whatever amount of rolling you initiated in takeaway! I have read so many books over the years and i firmly believe there are none better than his Five Lessons written all the way back in 1959! It is the entire reason i can flush the ball all day long, and humbly speaking it is the entire reason i lost so much respect for tour players! Once you commit yourself to the natural laws of motion it really is an awfully simple task!

[@mcctees]

I have watched you prog ress with your swing over many years. It is really looking great. Overall very nice program of instruction. Excellent!

[@johnleeman5992]

Great stuff.

[@mwgilmore9953]

Finally! Someone gets it. This is EXTREMELY important for teaching new golfers. New golfers think the swing is a Ferris Wheel (they want to fall back and pick up). "Turning the key" to start the swing gives them an insight into the rotational aspect of golf. It's a totally different force vector that frees their minds from the lifting action we see across all golf ranges. I get my students to hook a ball in about 5 minutes (yes, pull hook, of course. I'm not a miracle worker) You can fix a pull hook, but once someone gets the slice swing (square to the line) in their heads, it's time to find another sport. ALL good golfers roll the face INTO impact. Yes, they stabilized through impact (supination), but we don't think "hold it to the line"; that's death (unless your playing a Tiger cut from behind a tree).

[@mcctees]

Your swing has dramatically improved. You look like you are enjoying the results of all your effort and study. Congrats.

Tom Bertrand says the other part of this move is the left elbow pointing towards the hip (externally rotating the left shoulder) which he says is what squares the club face. Thoughts?

If you want to replicate Hogan pull harder to start the swing. A little bit like starting a lawn mower but only briefly. Or it can feel like a frisbee throw finishing palm up. The right arm does the work

[@MiracleSwingExperience]

Pull with the left hand?

[@Ericksonbellgolf]

@@MiracleSwingExperience its for sure hard to explain forces applied in a golf swing and you can't really see them. I think maybe Hogan was pulling and rotating with the right arm and resisting with the left. The right arm and hand are the mirror image of what he describes the hands doing at impact. The reason this open position is actually closer the square is because the body is rotated open at impact. Better to think of the club as square to impact rather than open. At set up if you moved into impact position without changing you arm rotation you would be way closed. Try rolling the club open (the waggle) and then rotating your body into an ideal impact position and you'll see what I mean.

[@楊維賢]

Every player has to find someway to accomplish wide take away/releasing at both back/down swing. Mr.hogan had his unique way for his backswing. So if we turn the play speed to 0.25, I find at the first moment of his takeoff was to push the clubhead outward untill the club shaft reach the inner side of the right leg, then started to open the clubface. Now,nobody doing in this way, like Rory, they hold the arms engaged with the Blake bone tightly and have the elbow face to the 3 o'clock direction. This makes the clubhead not to open untill it leave to body.

[@steveking2144]

I think you overlooked one dimension about this move....rolling the clubface wide open on the backswing.... What does it do to the right hand? It pushes the right hand in a cupped position... is that the right term? Take your right hand, hold it straight in front of you with the palm facing your left or target (for a right hander). Then without moving your arm, flex the hand back more to the right ... instead of facing your target, it will be turned 45 degrees right of target. So if the right wrist is in this position... the left wrist is in the bent position all the players today say to get to in order to hit it straight. If the right wrist bends right, so does the left. Where the palm of the right hand faces is where the clubface faces. Now if you roll it open like this and turn on the downswing, your right hand comes to face the target (the palm does)... I tried this at the range today and hit some very good shot! Shots with lots of power and pretty straight!

[@tomnelson8515]

Check out John Erickson and his Advanced Ball Striking. He explains this concept very well. He promotes rolling to square and at impact he hands off to body rotation allowing club face stay square for a long time . . . To a high follow through. Bottom line, if you are a good athlete and have unlimited time at the range, and you stick to a method, you will probably make it work. But only if you can put will you become a champion.

[@beachwelcome]

You are almost there. Watch Tom Watson swing part 2 to see how to swing in a barrel and rotate your upper chest and start the down swing with your right shoulder. If you let Hogan's hand rotation happen naturally it will put your left arm flat across your chest relaxed in the back swing naturally with relaxed muscle tension. And when you have your right wrist in Hogan's position and your right elbow still attached to your right side as you rotate your hips (the hips will be ahead of the chest every time). In the down swing, the right chest rotates the right elbow and cocked right wrist in what feels like straight down behind you causing the club handle to point straight into your belt buckle in the middle of the transition at impact and your right forearm brushes your right pocket as you follow through and your right knee touches the inside of your left leg because gravity causes the follow through and Hogan's hands rotating through the transitioin add the distance. The first time I did it right i was stunned at the feeling and how repeatable and relaxing it is. Sort of that oily feeling i always heard Sam Snead described it as.

Hogan had a bad snap hook. If your swing produces a snap hook then you might fix it by moving the club head in a way that would induce a slice. Snap hook swing with an open face might produce a straighter ball. It’s fixing one fault with another but if you can consistently reproduce it good luck to you . Hogan had a problem swing that was personal to him and he found a way to counter it. Should we all really be using the same method ?

[@definitiveenergy1878]

great visualization with the throttle. Cheers and send em to the bottom of the cup!

[@kirkclements4893]

On the back swing the right palm is sliding up to be flat on his glass plane at the top. As for rolling through the ball, you just want to roll to toe up after impact - not rolled over. The raised left wrist bone at impact is a result the bent right wrist which is a position of strength. Trying to do it with the left hand raised wrist is so weak and will result in injury to the small bones there. It is a big difference between looking like you are lashing at the ball with the back of the left hand, and actually attempting to lash at the ball with the back of the left hand. BE WARNED!!!!

[@jillsong5377]

Hogan used his body to move the hands in his backswing as the club face open quickly. Look more closely again. That’s the key and unless you understand it. That’s what being connected means.

[@MiracleSwingExperience]

That's how I've described it in the past, but as Hogan says in the quote above the roll on the backswing sets the cup at the top. I just cupped without much roll before.

[@truthlifefishing1730]

One more little bit to go Christo. You haven't quite got the "tumble" of the wrists. When the wrists are thrust down and away from the top through parallel, the club head falls in behind and inside between the target line and the feet line. Then in that locked position the wrists unlock by pulling up and left, bringing the club head down and out, right into the back quadrant of the ball. Golf Smart Academy INSIGHT- Timing of the Tumble is a 2 minute, 40 second video. Also, Charlie Explains Cutting Edge Golf Theory, CHAGOL TV. He speaks Japanese but you can click CC for subtitles (You'll LOVE IT, but watch your back). The idea is the sudden change of direction and club head inside unlocking through the wrist creates more speed. I saw Bobby Jones doing it in a video, I thought 'why are his hands so far out?' I call it WUMP. You'll feel the power get stored through the hitting zone, then WUMP. Hogan's ROLL adds even more power.

[@countfloyd1269]

Very good video.

[@simondefish]

If I am not mistaken, I think the “Hogan roll” is a reaction to the combined actions of hip-turn and the arm rotating the club clockwise towards the back. To rotate the club at the top of the swing, your body needs to contract the right side of your lat. That will allow the club path to shallowed. With the hip turn, it automatically creates the lateral side bend that clears the swing path. Your arms barely swing during this motion. As the hip turns, the club will wipe out with a tremendous amount of force when the club has no space to go. Isn't this fascinating? More interestingly, this can apply to all kinds of swings, classic swing, modern swing, long drive swing; you name it. If you get it, you will see it in all the great ball strikers. Sorry, English is my second language. I wish I could put it out more clearly.

I had actually sent this same drill (from an American batting coach) to Bradley Hughes, the famous golf instructor last year. However, I had not every tried it until today. It helped glue everything together really well. Thank you very much for reminding me!!!

Everyone is on their own path.

Maybe you take a look at John Ericsson or Bradley Hughes and their approach. You can watch a series of videos at the channel Be better golf. It is exactly what you have discovered.
