I started tucking my right arm in as much as possible, has been a game changer

[garrykendrick]

I read the Ben Hogan book in lockdown and adopted this technique as soon as we got out on the course. After a while I forgot about it until watching your video yesterday. Played golf this morning and adopted your karate chop and guess what. Started nailing my shots. Driver, irons and chipping all out of the middle of the bat. Thanks for the reminder. It's brilliant 👍

I started doing this based on Tom Saguto's advice, and it's been a total game changer. As long as I keep my trail elbow tucked, my shots are almost ramrod straight if I keep control of the club face. The thing you have to be careful about is making sure your upper arm isn't too "glued" to your chest on your backswing. Keep the elbow tucked in, but allow the arm to move off your body at the top of your backswing so you're not sacrificing power. It took a few range hours to get it right, but it's been a winner! Great tip, Alex!

Great drill, will try tomorrow. Thank you!

Excellent explanation Alex of Hogan's Magic Elbow! I have been working on this right elbow fold and unfold for a while now and I really like its role in making a more powerful swing! Your "reversed hand" drill is a good one in order to feel how the this "magic elbow" occurs! Well Done Alex!!!

Do like this tips, been trying it out my results not quite good as yours, but will keep trying

[howardmarshall]

Great tip as always Alex.
I’m having a problem with my right hand coming loose on my backswing. Right hand player.

Great Tips Alex👏💪💪My uncle played Kak for many years reaching 5 handicap. Mind you did get some strange looks from fellow competitors 😮😮😮😮🤔🤔

[ericehrnsberger]

Great explanation! I have Ben Hogan's five lessons book... super great book and illustrations.

[DASHful]

well, the key is to hold the handle of the club up, with your left hand; and, then place your right hand on the club. this ensures that the right elbow is below the left elbow, at address.

Hello Alex,
Great golf instruction! I've been working on my right elbow motion just how you explained it with the karate chop motion.😊 I'm not sure if you are aware of it or not, but this karate motion I thought of was because I was watching a video on YouTube by Fernando Cano filming Ben Hogan in Mexico in 1953 when he was at the height of his game. At 1:27 minutes into it he's doing that karate move you're talking about. I wonder if he was giving someone a lesson on how to use the right arm in the downswing? Anyway, it's an interesting thing to see on video from the great Ben Hogan!

[Golfadddict]

one of my swing thoughts (when I remember) is 'Tuck' to initiate that elbow fold.

[minaminx]

hi, i cant seem to find the thumbnail image of hogan used on this video. Can you help me find out where it originates? looks like its not within the pages of " Five Lessons"

[susancrowther]

My right arm move in the backswing is my Achilles heel. I tend to bend my left wrist and hinge my right wrist and the club then travels on an inside path. I get to the point where the club swings around the back of my legs hence I cannot then lift club to finish backswing and end up bending my left (lead arm) to complete the backswing. From this point I then have to reroute the club on downswing to return to ball. Any ideas to help me sort it out would be much appreciated. Great tips y the way!

[minaminx]

That drawing is not from Hogans book, and hogan never talked or promoted this setup. In fact hogans right forearm sits above his left. This is a game changer indeed, if you are looking to get worse at golf.
