Good golf begins with a good grip.

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

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.

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?

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.

Hit the ball up to the hole... You meet a better class of people up there.
Ben Hogan
Image
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
Image
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.
Ben Hogan
Image
Your name is the most important thing you own. Don't ever do anything to disgrace or cheapen it.
Ben Hogan
Image
People have always been telling me what I can't do. I guess I have wanted to show them. That's been one of my driving forces all my life.

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.

I see no reason that a golf course cannot be played in 18 birdies. Just because no one has ever done that doesn't mean it can't be done.
