An image from 'The Complete Hogan' page 94. At impact his right arm was still bent and does not fully straighten until the club head is about 2 feet past the original ball position. The club head was continuing to accelerate THROUGH impact and past that point. Jim McLean points out that initially Ken Venturi identified this action as 'the long right arm' on Hogan's downswing. Hogan clearly addresses this action in his book, 'Five Lessons, The Modern Fundamentals of Golf'. PGA Tour professionals including Tiger Woods strive to achieve this secret move on their downswing. If they show some video clips of Hogan during this year's US Open at Merion CC on the Golf Channel you will get to see what this looks like on TV.
