Clear instruction - I practiced the prescribed exercises and found that my swing went downhill really quickly. You really have to stick to it though - stay in the cognitive stage of skill acquiring and I'm sure I'll have a better swing than before!

If you only ever read one book about how to play golf make sure it is this book. It has provided me with endless lessons and constant sources of the small improvements so essential to being able to play this highly technical game better. Ben Hogan was a master golfer, he was also a master teacher.

listen to me and hear me now!

this is not just any golf book. this is THE golf book. ben hogan dedicated his life to golf and so this is as much a memoir as a mini-treaty on the swing. the artwork is masterful. the analysis of the golf swing is what the science of the full swing is based on sixty years later. it's a must have for so many reasons! it's short, concise and hogan writes the way he swings ... with absolute clarity and purpose.

and, if you think it's out of date .... google mr. jason dufner.

i love this book so much!!!!

Originally published 1957.

A classic of golf instruction, one however must understand the context in which Hogan wrote "Modern Fundamentals".

In his early days as a tour professional, Hogan was plagued by a vicious snap-hook (a ball which starts left and curves further left). This hook caused him to pursue the ideas that lead to "Modern Fundamentals" and develop a slight fade (left to right ball flight, which starts online).

Hogan's swing as he describes it is essentially an anti-left swing; he wanted to eliminate the left side of the golf course.

The average amateur however, generally suffers from an over the top slice (ballflight starts right, and curves further right)- the opposite of what Hogan did. Many amateurs attempting to copy Hogan, may merely exasperate existing problems.

That is not to say there is no value in this book, much of it is, as Hogan says, is essential to all good swings. It is the key parts (such as the extremely weak left hand grip) that need to be tweaked for different golfers.
