What we’ve learned from these golf legends are lessons that are still being passed on today.
Seve Ballesteros- He had a signature move called the Walkthrough finish. This is not only a stylish move, but one that helped him with perfect weight transfer and balance.
Ben Hogan - Much has been said about the turning of his left hip to start the downswing. But it was his wrist action that was the most fascinating of all.
Sam Snead - Most golfers know about Snead's legendary rhythm and timing. An absolutely poetic golf swing. However, few golfers know about the turning of his hips for pure power in the downswing, his left wrist action at impact or his favorite drill for improved timing in the golf swing.
Arnold Palmer- Palmer was one of the longest drivers on the PGA Tour during his era, and he regularly hit drives that were longer than his competitors' by 20 or 30 yards. Learn his distance
secrets, but more importantly, how he attacked pins to create more birdie opportunities than other players.
Gene Sarazen - Known for many aspects of his game like exceptional ability to get out of the sand and short game mastery. He was also renowned for his iron
play. Learn how he kept his hands quiet, when he used a descending blow to land perfectly on the green and how to master distance control.
