Ben Hogan Called This the Greatest Swing

Ben Hogan called Mickey Wright's swing the greatest he ever saw. Byron Nelson said the same thing, independently. Sixty years later, teachers still hold her swing up as the model. But most golfers who try to study it end up copying the wrong part. In this video, I dig into what four separate experts, Hogan, Nelson, LPGA founder Shirley Spork, and Golf Digest teacher Mike Adams, were actually praising when they talked about Mickey Wright. Spoiler: it wasn't power, and it wasn't the flexibility that got the most attention. It was something older, slower, and harder to see, but a lot more useful to the rest of us. If you've spent years trying to copy tour swings for a body you don't have anymore, this one's for you. ======================== If this way of thinking about golf resonates, my book Playable Golf: Finding and Playing the Game You Actually Have is available on Amazon. It's not a swing instruction book. It's a guide to reducing frustration and making better decisions with the game you already have.
