Ben Hogan’s Magic Elbow | The Danger of Tucking the elbow during the backswing #golftips

35 Comments

  1. I definitely hit it better tucking on the way down but for consistency keeping the elbow tucked the whole time people should try it. I use it as a drill when I get off track

  2. Hogan is the man! Tuck that elbow in concentrate on swinging with your core.
    Everything moving in unison.

  3. My 9 iron clubhead speed is about 90mph but i dont carry anywhere close to 166 yards… any good golfers know what im doing wrong? Im green to the sport could use the advice- THX!

  4. Had a half turn on the first shot and no speed through the ball. The 2nd shot bigger turn and faster swing. I started tucking because my shots were inconsistent your way. I couldn't keep that feel getting the hands back to address. With tucking I hit my 9 160. Bigger turn which you didn't do and 95% consistent. Even with driver it allows me to really fire my hips and I hit it 275 nice and straight. I broke 80 this way. This is the problem with instructors. Giving different information. Danny Maude is consistent with his instruction. Tucked takes care of so many things most important is getting those hands back to where they were at address for a solid strike. Not every golfer needs to have the same swing. You instructors don't take that into consideration

  5. And your fault on the first swing and you said it was you use all arms? Umm tucked you're supposed to use your core on any swing. Try using your core tucked. You're welcome

  6. Hogan hit it farther than most guys on tour. You are not recreating his swing.

    The arrogance

  7. You don’t need to hit a 9 iron that far. Your dispersion is going to go way up on the course. Forget about distance, do what is consistent.
