"This vault houses a large variety of clips from our exclusive archives of rare film that showcase Mr. Hogan’s golf swing from many different settings throughout his career," said Tom McCarthy, CEO of McTee’s Champions and manager of The Ben Hogan Collection brand. "These clips capture the elegance of his swing from multiple camera angles, during both his practice sessions and competition."

The vault contains footage from the peak of Hogan’s career immediately after WWII and before his accident in 1949; film from the mid-50’s after he won the major’s Triple Crown; and later during the 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s .
"What better person to demonstrate the fundamentals of the golf swing than Ben Hogan, who most agree was the best ball striker past or present," McCarthy said. "We’re really proud to make these available to the public for all to enjoy."
In addition to archived footage, the website brings an instructional aspect for all players with Hogan as a left-handed golfer through digitized video images. The video vault can be accessed easily via internet connection through computers and PDA’s, with future plans for iPod applications.
