Ted Hunt offers golfers the opportunity to improve their game by focusing on the elements of golf legend Ben Hogan's picture-perfect swing, specifically for shots attempted within one hundred yards of the flagstick. Beginning with an overview of Hogan's magical device for the uninitiated, Hunt then delves into a detailed, step-by-step breakdown of Hogan's swing, from the takeaway to the follow-through, with each step covered in a dedicated chapter complete with illustrations, photos, and drills.

Subsequent chapters address specific shots, including chip shots, flop shots, bunker shots, and putts, as well as techniques for spinning, drawing, and fading the ball. Hogan's fundamentals and additional drills/exercises are also explored, along with a special chapter on Hogan stories.

The author emphasizes that these are not his own golf techniques, but rather Ben Hogan's, as described to him by fascinated professional golfers who studied or observed Hogan with an analytical eye. The author had the privilege of interviewing and playing with renowned golfers, including Arnold Palmer, Sam Snead, Jack Nicklaus, and others, who shared their insights and stories about Hogan's techniques.

Acknowledging the specialized terminology used by these informed sources, the author has translated the slang and demonstrations into understandable, universal, anatomical terms for reliable transmission. With the hope of persuading readers to give Hogan's short game system an honest try, the author promises to delve into the "good stuff" as quickly as possible.
