Hogan's right leg moves a bit toward the target more than most modern swings, but his torso is still rotating around, not a reverse pivot.
Hogan doesn't shift back and set in his right hip or leg like most guys of today. He had a big slide left and quick hips through the ball. His build helped with this move, low to the ground, not a tall man.
Hogan does not have a reverse pivot or weight shift. He moves hard to the left in transition and has an around swing, some call it flat. Since he is not as up and down as most he sets more around his hip rather than up and in on it like a Nicklaus did, or players of today. Check out Tigers recent swings and he is getting more around and not so much back and up as he did in the early stages of his career.
Hogan had a unique swing, do you think his build and leg problems created the move. He looks to have a almost baseball swing around and a heavy pivot move on his left leg. He did not have much up movement with his arms, so he had to have a shift in plane down to get back to the ball.
Am I getting close?
Hogan fan-dallas you are correct. Hogan did not shift back onto his right side LATER in his career. The sequence of his body's movement (after the wreck) changed the location of low point at impact, which changed the ball position and ultimately the ball flight.
Just take a look back to Power Golf and get some footage of his swing in the late 1940's. Then look at Five Lessons and get some footage of the 1950's.

Join VJ Trolio for a two day, intensive school, that will open your eyes to the golf swing. All two day schools start from the ground up. We will begin with ball position and end up with pressure points in the hands. Along the way, you will learn Hogan's pivot sequence that he used to win 6 of his 9 majors.
