Personally, I don't see what's not to copy.

It does help if you are a Swinger tho....and if you already swing close to that "style."

Those pics don't look too out of the ordinary to me :).
 
Just found this pic BTW....

Mid iron or w/e....ball right on heel.

Tough to tell exact camera angle....but more or less on heel even with a shorter club.

Just came acoss it...thought I'd post with all the recent Hogamania (similar to Hulkamania with less shirt ripping and eye gouges/rakes to the back).

That's exactly my point; Hogan had a neutral, correct looking swing. His particular way to it, though, was not based on copying someone who had a neutral swing but rather fixing a pull hook and getting the ball up higher - he has been quoted on this a million times.

So, why would you copy his swing ? Copy his plan instead: develop your own swing and correct the worst features in it. Because if you started life as a pull slicer I suggest you might struggle if you apply Hogan's ideas for avoiding a pull hook (with the clubface).

Gardner Dickinson is in the background. He was a Hogan copy-cat right down to the hat.
 
Any of you guys ever read Gardiner's book, Let 'er Rip ? There was some great insight about
the Hawk in there. He talked about how Hogan developed the arched wrist.

I like that.

It prolly is the best anti-left swing ever tho.....no pulls, no hooks.

Nice push-fade.

He could draw it too.

Every read Tony Robbins? That success can be modeled is a relatively recent type of knowledge.
I used to be a pole vaulter. Probably could have gone 2' higher if I had modeled what the great
Russian vaulters were doing instead of trying it "my way".

Success does leave clues. "Role-modeling" can accelerate the process. You don't have to re-invent the wheel, however, you do have to pay attention to the results you are getting and be flexible in your approach if it is not working.
