Is the explanation of what Lynn thinks to be the" most important illustration in the history of golf " of no interest?
Maybe in another time another place those who are truly interested will get another chance. Maybe not.
And it is OK for me. I'm not wanting to be annoying. I do want to be supportive so I chime in. But lots of stuff clicks in on its own schedule for me. I get a few things but not 10% of what my more technical peeps here, get. My encouragement is that when I do learn something, I'm great at showing others how to do it.
So....if you'd like me to just communicate on a technical level, I will do that. Maybe we should designate threads as "Book Only" threads? I'd go along with that.

"Book literalists" -- a.k.a. "junk scientists" -- would call Ben's alignments the perfection of Sketch 2-K #2 (Angular Momentum). Also, the Champion's Demonstration of the Ideal Vector Alignments of Sketch 2-C-1 #3. That is:
The Ideal Application showing Impact Geometry per 2-G and Clubhead Path Geometry per 2-N.
Ben Doyle told me that Hogan's brother, Royal, had a swing just like him.
Royal was a outstanding amatuer. Bet he had good geometric impact also.
I also never realized Hogan's dad shot himself in the chest with a shotgun, when Ben was a child. Perhaps thats where he developed that steely perseverance.

Some really nice family photos and stories can be found here. Below is a photo of Royal , Ben's older brother at Finish. Royal, Ben and Princess with their Dad Chester and Chester's blacksmith shop.

Thanks for this, O.B.
We have a photo on our wall with a father walking (in blue-collar clothing and a caddie hat) and being followed by his two young boys, the smallest carrying a little golf bag. The two following father Chester were big brother Royal and little brother Ben. Somebody got that photo?
I point to the little one in the photo and ask new students "Do you know who this is?" No one yet has had a clue.
To think that nobody not even his best friends knew of the burden he carried with him for his whole life. It no doubt coloured him and his relationships with others. That itself might have been harder to overcome than the car crash.
What a fighter.
PS I wonder if Chester could almost touch his left forearm with his left thumb?
