New Book
 

Does anyone know anything about this new book? Not my new book, but the new TGM book (Homer Kelley's Golfing Machine: The Curious Quest That Solved Golf)...

Just was woundering I saw it being talked about on another golf forum that I read on, and thought I would ask.

I wonder who he interviewed?

Book Birthing
 

Scott Gummer called twice, and we talked.

First, I satisfied myself as to his motives. Then, I answered his questions and filled in the blanks based on my personal experiences with Homer Kelley.

I never heard from him again.

I got a global email from him this morning announcing the book and soliciting a marketing effort.

Having received no complimentary copy for my previous or solicited effort, I'll order it now. [Knowing its content is part of my job description.]

If you are similarly inclined, go here for an immediate 33 percent discount http://www.amazon.com/Homer-Kelleys-...351382&sr=1-1).

For those more patient, know that books not self-published and not in serious demand are often 'remaindered' after four months. After which, you may be able to obtain a copy for shipping costs.

Thanks Yoda-

I was not sure if it was worth buying and was not sure if I should post about it here. Maybe I will wait a few monts. Thanks.

BurleyGolf-

I'm buying a copy. Just to learn about Salley and how she coped. I called her about twenty years ago when I lost a copy of the book. She said that she only had a few left but would sell me one of them if I promised that I was serious about learning TGM. :)

Copy on Order
 

I ordered a copy from Amazon yesterday....should receive it on Tuesday. Looking forward to reading about Homer's influence on Morgan Pressels golf swing. What AI taught Morgan???

I won't touch anything TGM/Homer Kelley related until it passes muster with Mr. Blake. :salut:

Sad Ending
 

Thanks Augusta Golf...

I was in Borders today and found the new book on Homer...it's funny, you can find this new bio on Homer but you can't find a copy of the 7th edition in any Borders or Barnes and Noble store.

I thumbed through the book and was surprised to discover Homer and Ben Doyle had a major falling out towards the end of Homer's life...and Bobby Clampett and Homer never met in person only communication by phone.

Hi DG,

Does the author identify and quote sources?
