ok ok ben was the best... but what is amazing is that his swing is still copied by many golfers... in fact a good swing is out of temporality... and all the guys speaking here add something to this great and respectable man... Ben Hogan... Jim McLean helps to see and to understand his swing... "thanks Jim... another one would have spoiled the mood... you lighten it up !" After viewing the 3 cds, I'm definitely a Ben Hogan fan !

This DVD collection is for serious golf geeks. It is full of film loops of the legendary Ben Hogan swinging various clubs, accompanied by breathless commentary by Jim McLean, a renowned golf instructor in his own right. If you are a student of the golf swing, or a beginner determined to get it right, this is for you. Hogan was one of the greatest golfers of all time and literally wrote the book on the golf swing: Five Lessons - The Modern Fundamentals of Golf.
This is a great accompaniment to Five Lessons. Hogan's book is a classic, and arguably the greatest golf instruction book ever written, but there are limitations to what you can express in words and two-dimensional drawings, and the footage in this DVD set fills those gaps. Buy the DVD set and the book together to create the ideal at-home golf instructional course.
