Yes this speaks directly to GPStyles' revelation, that with the proper set of high waisted slacks he could have a "keep the underside of your upper arms glued to your belt" mental image to make this connection you speak of automatic.


Edz, what is it about Hogans swing? There is something so beautiful but I cant articulate what it is really, or why I even like it. It defines something but I know not what. Is it CF?

He is perfectly in balance, on plane, and in Rhythm with a very stable center. And of course, a master of maintaining lag pressure, which I'd say he can feel all the way from his feet, to PP #3.

The connection isn't an 'action', it is a result of proper Rhythm and balance. If you look at players who had contact with Hogan, they all are great examples of that hands to chest relationship. Venturi, Knudson, Faldo to name a few. Mike Austin had this as well (as can be seen in his training aid, the 'flamer'). One of the big keys to why the figure 8 strap is a great training aid - learning the feel of that relationship.
