Jeff, I think that Leadbetter said it best. "I believe that Hogan's
lateral hip slide is a major cause of his high finish. Let me explain
why. The slide toward the target position his hips well foward.
As his hips began to rotate open from this forward position,
Hogan raised his body and stood up on the shot after impact."

I think that the key here is that Hogan was able to pivot with
the Center of Mass way to the left near or over his left leg.
Another point, V.J. noted that the head drops almost two inches
at the top of the swing. This is caused by the shift left
before the downswing. V.J. presents via of an engineering study
what and where the Center of Mass/Center of Gravity is.

Keep up the great work/postings/pictures. I sure enjoy them.
