Luther Blacklock
In 1957 the most important golf instructional book was published – “The Modern Fundamentals of Golf” by Mr. Ben Hogan. It records the teachings of one of the greatest ball strikers of all time, which for 50 years, have influenced great players, coaches and millions of amateur golfers across the world.
Today, Luther Blacklock, re-visits Mr Hogan’s “fundamentals” to ensure their relevance is not “lost” in this more modern era. He reveals, for the first time, five principles that will, he believes, become industry standard. Whether Hogan’s teaching is something you grew up with, or if it was before your time, discover five “Lost Fundamentals” that will transform your understanding of the Golf Swing., and more importantly, help you become a better player or coach.
Five Lost Fundamentals:
- THE PARALLEL LEFT THUMB – the biomechanical advantage of the Vardon Grip
- THE OPTIMUM BIOMECHANICAL SWING PLANE – clarification of Mr. Hogan’s “Pane of Glass” theory
- PLANE SHIFT – the swing shifts TO the plane at impact and NOT below it!
- THE RADIAL BALL POSITION – end 50 years of confusion by doing away with the separate teachings of “Constant” and “Progressive”
- AIMING THE SHAFT – the Shaft Plane at address is almost irrelevant compared to the way we “aim the shaft”
It also features introduction and summary by Alex Hay, renowned TV golf commentator.
This is not just a golf instruction; it’s a living history lesson that will profoundly affect your understanding of the golf swing. No professional golf coach should be without it.
