An edition someone could pick up - read AND understand it.

I am really surprised a laymans version of the book has not been authored. This site has done it for me but not everyone knows to search the net for the answers.

A lot can be said in defense of simplifying the material in TGM. I have struggled many years while being confounded by much of the information. I still find myself struggling over many things.

But I'm also surprised at how simple things become when explained and demonstrated by a very knowledgeable instructor. I'm not sure that the written word can express as much as demonstration. But demonstration alone doesn't give you the "Why" or place emphasis where sometimes it needs to be in order for one to "put" things in perspective. So explanation and background information will be helpful.

I think that "Video Presentations" are getting better and better and I look forward to learning from "Alignment Golf II". I'm patient and I know how precise Yoda wants to be. I'm sure that enthusiasts and Instructors alike will appreciate the valuable contribution this DVD is going to make.

It may not be long before Golf Magazines begin including video presentations in their packaging or offering expanded video presentations for their On-Line publications for participating instructors. Certainly, golf stroke theorists and enthusiasts both would enjoy such an opportunity.

Your posts, drawings, and work here have been a HUGE help in that area as well Daryl. We don't say THANK YOU enough!

Thanks Kevin. If I could give back one tenth of what I've learned from Yoda and the members of this website I would feel good about my contributions.

I would like to see pictures of players demonstrating the positions/principles and from there perhaps describe where it's going from there. Ideally, a TGM book of patterns would be awesome but I don't see that happening. In it's place... maybe a chapter on Compatible Components.

We could do that swing pattern thing right here. With videos and text by the player even. I believe we've probably got ted,jeff and lynns info somewhere.

totally agree, I understand the book has millions of patterns but I dont think a video showing what is best to mix and match is anything but good.

I know one of the best moments for my hitting pattern was in AG2 disk 3 when Lynn showed how the right shoulder moves in order to act as a launching pad to drive the right arm, it seems a simple concept but it was easier after seeing that move in detail.
