'Its Your Golf Stroke' (Not harry hackers or paul pro or ian instructor)
I agree with that for sure.
That is definitely one of the most important things.....and maybe the first thing you'd ever want to tell anyone about TGM.
"There are only 3 IMPARATIVES....and many ways to accomplish them."
"Whatever works best for YOU."
This is incredibly important...and why so many different swings throughout history have been successful. Think about it....Tiger...Hogan....TREVINO....Nicklaus....K PERRY....Snead....FURYK.....blah blah etc. etc. "Conventional" and "unconventional."
They get the job done. Why? 3 IMPARATIVES. (and the natural tendencies of the player)
They figured out a way that THEY could play. And some figured it out (tweaked it) better than others....but still was THEIR swing.
...
I'd also talk about how it was put together...i.e. by the obsessive researching of Homer Kelly over however many years (40 or 50 or w/e it is)....and that he was still going with the research when he died. (also VERY important)
...
I'd talk about just the whole essence of the book....what it is....what it is supposed to do for teachers.....etc.
Options options options.
A "parts catalogue" of the golf swing (you pick parts out of the catalogue)....+ what the parts do.
Talk about the 24 components.
Talk about some of the science behind the whole thing. (not too in depth lol)
I think the preface, intro, and first chapter will give you a lot of ideas.....because it's there where Homer is essentially summarizing TGM.

My TGM studies are very rudimentary, but in addition to all of the above posts, or in compiance with them, I think the STAR system triad is important. Especially for people unfamiliar with TGM.

Everybody:thanks for lots of good advice. I have got some good points on how to organize all the great GM information into an paper. The biggest challenge, however, will be to translate the concepts and everything else into Norwegian...
