More quotes by Ben Hogan

Ben Hogan
The average golfer's problem is not so much the lack of ability as it is lack of knowledge about what he should be doing
Ben Hogan
There are no shortcuts in the quest for perfection.
Ben Hogan
If a man can shoot 10 birdies, there's no reason why he can't shoot 18. Why can't you birdie every hole on the course?
Ben Hogan
You hear stories about me beating my brains out practising, but the truth is, I was enjoying myself. I couldn't wait to get up in the morning, so I could hit balls. When I'm hitting the ball where I want, hard and crisply, it's a joy that very few people experience.
Ben Hogan

Control is the main thing, and the tee shot is the most important shot in golf. You've got to hit the fairway before you have a good chance of putting the ball close to the pin. You can be the greatest iron player in the world, but if you're in the boondocks it won't do you any good.
Ben Hogan
You never fight your eye when you look at a hole. If it looks one way, play it that way. Don't make a big deal out of an easy shot.
Ben Hogan
May thy ball lie in green pastures, and not in still waters.
Ben Hogan
Your name is the most important thing you own. Don't ever do anything to disgrace or cheapen it.
Ben Hogan
Hit the ball up to the hole... You meet a better class of people up there.
Ben Hogan
Shoot a lower score than everybody else.
Ben Hogan
Relax? How can anybody relax and play golf? You have to grip the club, don't you?
Ben Hogan
You wouldn't have had to call a penalty on me, I would've called I on myself'. 9. “I'm the sole judge of my standards”. 10. “I always outworked everybody. Work never bothered me like it bothers some people. You can outwork the best player in the world.
Ben Hogan
Good golf begins with a good grip.
Ben Hogan
I hate a hook. It nauseates me. I could vomit when I see one. It's like a rattlesnake in your pocket.
