In this article, Ben continues the discussion from yesterday’s post about Bobby Locke’s article he wrote for Esquire Magazine. Yesterday he agreed with Bobby’s premise that tournament golf will wear on your nerves, but today he disagreed with Mr. Locke that one can practice too much. Ben was quoted as saying “There isn’t enough daylight in any one day to practice all the shots you need to.”

From early in 1947 to late 1949 Ben Hogan wrote a series of short articles (numbering more than 300) about interesting anecdotes and relationships he developed in the world of golf and tips for golfers of all skill levels. Tom Shehan, a journalist who made his career by covering horseracing for several publications was the ghostwriter of these articles and others, including Ben Hogan’s Power Golf and works by Byron Nelson and Sam Snead. McNaught Syndicate distributed the articles to newspapers. This article was published in October 1947. 47th in a series.
