I never played a round when I didn't learn something new about the game.
Ben Hogan
Image
Certainly, if you can't manage your game, you can't play tournament golf. You continually have to ask yourself what club to play, where to aim it, whether to accept a safe par or to try to go for a birdie. You can't play every hole the same way. I never could.

There are no shortcuts in the quest for perfection.

Golf is not a game of good shots. It's a game of bad shots.
Ben Hogan

Relax? How can anybody relax and play golf? You have to grip the club, don't you?

I always outworked everybody. Work never bothered me as it bothers some people.

I'm glad I brought this course, this monster, to its knees.

Hit the ball up to the hole... You meet a better class of people up there.

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
Image
Every day you miss playing or practicing is one day longer it takes to be good.
Ben Hogan
Image
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.

Why that would be like challenging Bing Crosby to a singing contest,wouldn't it

You only hit a straight ball by accident. The ball is going to move right or left every time you hit it, so you had better make it go one way or the other.
