Hogan's Arm Alignments
Notice Ben's Level Left and Right Wrists, bent Right Elbow and On Plane Right Forearm. His Flying Wedges are perfect . . .

And a far cry from his dictate to "keep the elbows . . . as close together as possible throughout the entire swing". It's not about keeping the elbows close together: It's about the Right Forearm Wedge supporting the Left Arm Wedge! That structure -- with Extensor Action and the Right Wrist in its Impact Fix degree of Bend -- will position the Right Elbow.

Most of Hogan's book was right on, but he and his collaborators missed on the alignments of the Arms -- as he did with the Inclined Plane . . .

Big time.
