Are you bracing the lead leg on the downswing as well after weight shift?

[cassidynoble]

I’ve read Hogan’s 5 lessons a few times and listened to the audio book at least a dozen times...yet somehow I’m not sure how I was able to miss the importance of bracing the right leg. Nonetheless, in my opinion you are writing the sequel to Bantam Ben’s bible. You’re a future legend Christo. Thank you VERY MUCH!

[hanale]

great emphasis on opening the hip! thank you so much for posting this!

Nice 1 again mon ami....Well done on the Hogan series with Golf Channel.

Will you explain what you meant by “Take your lead hand and reach it into your opposite hip pocket?” Is this referring to the takeaway? Wouldnt that open your lead hand up and cause you to get the club behind your hands? New sub by the way. Great content.

Hello Christo
If I recall correctly Hogan advocated that the right foot should be at 90 " to the target but I found that restricts my hip movement
So I prefer to splay the right foot out
I'm wondering what you think

Mr Garcia like you I have read 5 lessons and have always been amazed by Mr Hogans swing. My question is do you think the fundamentals of Mr Hogan can be applied to someone say 6'3 and taller? If so is there someone similar (matt kuchar maybe) that I could compare to as well as the 5 lessons book.

Hi christo always fantastic content, Hogan's swing looks quite flat compared to today's modern swing, did u have to adjust the lie on your clubs to match his swing and if so by how much thanks

[maxwired]

Can you tell me are you playing the new PTX irons or still with the Fort Worth and what are the pros and cons of each? Do they have the same feel? I play a pristine set of 2004 Hogan FTX irons and love the feel. I'm wondering if I should update.

[karimbenzid]

What do you mean exactly by bracing the right leg? Will it be straightened? Stiffened? I could not find the right description of the word in the dictionnary. Thank you in advance

Just finished part 2 of Hogan great show very inspiring. I have to admit I'm more of Moe Norman guy but, without a doubt Moe and Ben were the greatest ball strikers of all time. Tiger Woods said as much and that's high praise in my book. Me being a Texan I need a set of those Hogan Clubs.

Sir,

My take on Hogan was that he wanted the pelvis to start the backswing with the hands to follow.

When I look at the film, the golfer seems to start the swing with his arms and the pelvis plays 'catch-up'.

Please clarify.

R/S,
Doc

Is the course you’re at in Santa Clarita ?

[dsmyle]

Do you ever get asked to play in Pro am tournaments?. What do the pros say about your swing?. It is a beautiful swing

[stephenport]

I've noticed with Ben Hogan that the right foot is back in his stance do you Chritsto adopt the same stance or do you keep feet level when swinging with driver, irons and wedges

[pukkapeter]

The error in your swing is close to impact, as you get close to strike, your hips move toward the ball, instead of the left hip clearing behind. This causes you to lose a little posture and will lead to inconsistencies. Good luck

[MrAbrazor]

The secret is the positioning of the ball for Yourself more or less forward in your stance ( for me more and it changed my plan and my ball striking !)

[christophchristopher]

the only difference i see is you have a little bit of popping up through contact, ben stays level at the moment of striking the ball. just nitpicking.

[e.g.flores]

Please explain the hand in the pocket. And Christo, you lost weight that your hat looks big on you.

[mcirill]

Wow. I've looked at LOTS of books and videos in my short (7+ months) tenure learning golf, and this is the first time I've seen someone exclusively use language like "Leading foot" or trailing arm, rather than "your RIGHT ARM" etc... It gets a bit tiresome for us lefties to constantly have to transpose, on top of absorbing new concepts!
