I don't believe there is anything like a natural golf swing. A golf swing is an unnatural thing, and it has to be developed.
Ben HoganI have found the game to be, in all factualness, a universal language wherever I traveled at home or abroad.
Ben HoganThere is no similarity between golf and putting; they are two different games, one played in the air, and the other on the ground.
Ben HoganHitting a golf ball and putting have nothing in common. They're two different games. You work all your life to perfect a repeating swing that will get you to the greens, and then you have to try to do something that is totally unrelated. There shouldn't be any cups, just flag sticks. And then the man who hit the most fairways and greens and got closest to the pins would be the tournament winner.
