Description

Ben Hogan's pro-golf record is legendary. A four-time PGA Player of the Year, he celebrated sixty-three tournament wins and became known as a man of few words and fewer close friends. Most of what we know about Hogan has been based on myth and speculation. Until now. In the 1960's, though Hogan's competitive career was over, he kept the practice habits that had made him famous and remade modern competitive golf. He hired fifteen-year-old Jody Vasquez to help. Over the course of their twenty-year friendship, Hogan taught Jody the mechanics of his famous swing and shared his thoughts on playing, practicing, and course management--unknowingly revealing much about his character, values and beliefs, and the events that shaped them. In Afternoons with Mr. Hogan (which sold more than 30,000 copies in hardcover), Jody Vasquez shares dozens of stories about Hogan, from the way he practiced, selected his clubs, and interacted with other star players to his little-known humor and generosity.

  • It's the most wonderful time of the year (for fashion!)

    It happens like clockwork: each winter I haul out my boots and warmest sweaters and begin to sacrifice style bit by bit in favor of the comfortable and the cozy. Part of my rationalization for not being more creative is because I know I'm going to put a coat over everything I wear. If that's the case, why bother trying? Well, I should bother because there are lots of fantastic (and warm) winter ...
