We sit down with Greg McHatton and John Erickson to trace how The Golfing Machine shaped their teaching and why Ben Hogan’s motion still sets the bar for golf swing physics. We get specific about impact, shaft flex, grip pressure, hip traces, and equipment choices that can make ball striking more repeatable and less dependent on timing.
• how John’s development shifts from Ben Doyle’s theory to Greg’s competitive clarity
• what Homer Kelly’s Chapter Two reveals about impact and real answers
• why ball striking is trained into the body more than explained
• trajectory-first shot selection and keeping the ball out of the wind
• holding shaft flex through impact and using pressure in the hands
• turning putting into a golf shot with more mass and feedback
• Greg’s 3D Hogan research using high-frame-rate footage and traces
• Hogan’s key swing elements including 4:30 line geometry and late rotation
• grip pressure point Number Three with firm fingers and oily wrists
• where Mac O’Grady’s model shines and where misses can show up
• why heavier clubs can improve control and may reduce stress on the body
