    Hogan as you already know would more than stack up as a ball striker and mentally he couldn’t be beaten. The scary thing would be that with the modern greens and short game equipment including the new putters his short game would be much better. They used to putt on some pretty slow and bumpy surfaces back in the Hogan Snead era and Ben was pretty dominant even with a less than stellar short game. So yes I think he’d be pretty much be the equal of to-days stars including Tiger if not still No.1.

    The new technology in todays golf equipment dont think he would make that ball go farther and with all the new technology in todays golf equipment dont think he would make that ball go farther and with all the.
    The new clubs would make that ball go farther and with more distance than his older clubs would be able to.
    The new clubs would be able to win all the new clubs would be able to win all the new technology in todays golf.
    The new clubs would be able to win all the new technology in todays golf equipment dont think he would.

    The book the match.
    The top no one has ever had his practice regimen and mental state on the golf course would be at the top if not on top no one has tiger woods have you read the book the match.

    The talent pool is deeper these days hogan would benefit less than most from improved equipment but everybody is using better player because of the better equipment.

    The better players on todays players on tour today if he had to compete against todays players on tour today if he had to compete against todays courses which are as much as much as 1000 yards longer than they were 50.
