Rare and collectible set in great condition clipped (no holes) into single binder for protection. Original 1957 Ben Hogan's Five Lessons: The Modern Fundamentals of Golf is widely recognized as the bestselling golf instructional book of all time. Co-authored with acclaimed sportswriter Herbert Warren Wind and featuring iconic, lifelike illustrations by Anthony Ravielli, it first ran as a highly anticipated five-part series in Sports Illustrated during the spring of 1957.
The series systematically breaks down the full golf swing into sequential building blocks: 1. The Grip: Emphasizes the left-hand position and treats the grip as the foundational system for the entire swing. 2. Stance and Posture: Covers alignment, balance, and physical positioning relative to the ball. 3. The First Part of the Swing (Backswing): Introduces the famous visual metaphor of a plane of glass resting on the shoulders to define swing path boundaries. 4. The Second Part of the Swing (Downswing): Focuses on chaining motion from the lower body to generate power and precision. 5. Summary and Review: Synthesizes the core principles into an integrated, repeatable full-swing routine
