Absolutely awesome ... you can really see what he's doing to the handle as he rounds the corner. Love that camera angle.

 

Thanks, Drew!

Most browsers support ctrl and + to zoom in. Worked for me in Firefox.
Ctrl and - will zoom back out.

Well done.

Great Stuff! I was actually playing around with something similar last night. Only two photos but they're very detailed and show end of transition/startdown very clearly. In putting it together, I realized his left eyelash doesn't move at all. Not even a pixel lol! Check it out:

Edit: seems like you have to click to enlarge to get the animation...

After slobbering over the still sequence shots, I just realized that everyone will now be able to do Hogan's swing. No secret, nothing's hidden....everything's there in black and white, or RGB.

Very nice work Drew!

[markponi]

Amazing how much he clears the left shoulder up and back...

[mission_scratch]

Awesome.. Simply Awesome!

A pured 1 Iron salute to your fine work.
I hope it is not poor form to ask if you could/how to share your assembled files of these sequences. I know there are no short cuts on the practice tee, just hoping there might be to digging it out of the electronic dirt.
Regards.

Really intersting how open he is set up for that long iron, assuming that is his caddy in the distance. Practicing a big fade perhaps?

I never get tired of looking at Hogan's swing.

I have 8. Mm movies some slow motion of Hogan before the accident . My dad, a good friend of Ben's, took the at Tam O'Shanter pre accident, there are no copies of this film . Everyone I have allowed tot view them, including Azinger, Doc Suttie, and other experts were amazed and surprised at the fade results from a hook swing.

Charley,

60+ years later Hogan's swing is still the gold standard.

Any chance we could work together to get those digitized and put together for the legion of Hogan fans? This is a golf treasure.

Cheers,
Drew

Look how nice and square the club is early in downswing. Great stuff and thanks Drew.
