One of instructor Roger Gunn's prized possessions is a 7-page letter written by Ben Hogan in which Hogan talks about the takeaway. The Hawks writes about his "no hands" takeaway, which starts with a tiny weight shift to the right and a shoulder turn. Tom Lehman agrees with the technique, which prevents golfers from having to use the small muscles in their hands.
