This is like a guy without a million dollars saying he knows the secret to making a million dollars, if he knew he would have a million dollars. The guy without a million dollars and without the secret to make a million dollars will make a million dollars from people that believe he knows the secret to make a million dollars, wanting to make a million dollars. All the books written about the secret were after Hogan died for a reason, he would not approve and would not allow them to print. It was Hogan himself that is the reason that celebrities of any type now have the rights over name, likeness image etc. Those writers can say they want to help golfers with publishing the secret, if they want to help give the secret anonymously. Have not seen that, which leaves only self serving reasons such as fame, money, credit, recognition, image, legacy. You know all those things Hogan worked for.
This guy is not just like the Hogan secret authors and has not written a Hogan secret book, but that did not stop him from saying he knows Ben Hogans secret. Maybe he does not want money at all or maybe not now, just youtube views. He could have said it was his secret, but nobody is typing his name in the search. They are typing in Ben Hogan, which he is on the first page of. Just saying do your own work, do not piggyback. If you have the secret prove it just like Hogan did. Nobody would want his secret if he didn’t go on to hit the ball better than anyone ever, winning many tournaments. Hogan didn’t put out a books explaining the golf swing before he hit it better than anyone, he he hit it better than anyone ever, THEN he wrote books on how because it had been proven. Hit it like Hogan consistently and people will be typing this guys name. But just like every Hogan secret guy this guy does not hit it like Hogan and will not be viewed for his world class, tournament tested, 30+ year in the making greatest ever ball striking. Takes too long, too much work, just do it the easy way and use HIS NAME, it comes with all the great things HE DID without having to do what HE DID. This guy wouldn’t go to a minor league baseball player to learn to hit it like Ken Griffey Jr., he would go to Griffey Jr. If the minor league player knew how to hit it like Griffey Jr. he would not be a minor league player. If you HAVE IT you can PROVE IT by DOING IT. If this guy or any of the secret authors knew the secret they could only prove this by hitting it like Hogan, since none have none know. If the world operated like these authors then a guy that says he knows how to perform open heart surgery would write the book on how to do it without ever having performed open heart surgery. He would just tell people now because he figured it out but had not done it himself. Obviously thats dumb, and no one would learn from him. Its dumb for the same reason it is dumb to listen to these secret authors that have not hit the ball like Hogan, they just figured it out and want to teach people how to do it. Did not see any of the author names up their with Tiger on PGA leaderboard, none on European, none of Web.com, none on any of the 100s of smaller tours around the world. You would think at least of them knowing the secret would be on some tour or famous for ball striking alone. Moe was famous up to his death without tour events, but none of them. Go figure.
Publishing is not a non profit business, meaning it is profit motivated. All businesses are for profit unless classified differently. The publisher and the author are doing this for money. They know people will buy because they want a quick fix and that is not their fault. Their fault is using Ben Hogan to sell books, without permission. The information in all the books is in power golf and 5 lessons written by Ben Hogan, the rest is either made up or unconfirmed by Hogan himself. Does not matter, the name sells. If any of the authors would have put their names with the secret with no mention of Hogan they would not be authors. Ben Hogan is synonymous with ball striking prowess, perfection, tireless work ethic, attention to detail, focus, and planning. This sells because he did it, not the authors. You do not have to listen to me, get it from Hogan himself. Go to the site, he thought is was wrong to profit off of someones fame without permission and his fight is the main reason for image protection.If they knew the secret they would hit it like Hogan and be famous for Hogan level ball striking, then they would write a book about how well they hit the ball and people would buy. They do not, instead profit off of a legendary mans legacy but not while he is alive. ONLY after he is dead and can’t fight back.
