have any of you guys seen this video, and if so what are your thoughts. The only other quasi TGM related video's I have are Mike Benders, and Brian's Flipper video. Still anxiously waiting for Lynn and VJ's production.....
I am a former Doyle student. I have the orginal rougher version and the newer little more polished version. In the first his phone goes off during the video and he goes over to the bush in which it is located to answer it! Both are priceless and He goes thru the components without prompts demonstrating them all. I think it is priceless, a collectors item and really helpful in understanding the yellow book. It is filmed on the range at Quail Lodge in Carmel and really homemade. Ben is still there teaching everyday and is now teaming up with Bobby Clampett to teach Impact Zone Classes. Bobby is out there a lot these days. It also will help you understand the left coast TGM folks Greg McHatton and Bobby Schaeffer. While Lynn teaches details with words and action, Ben is quite good with his demos. They are very complimentary.
It is me who posted Ben Doyle 's swing on Utube. It is a shape of tribute to him, having learning so much from his DVDs. It is really complementary of Mr Kelley's book and the education which we can receive on this site. I get no royalties but I can advise you to buy Ben's DVDs.
I would sell mine, wish I hadn't purchased it. I've learned A LOT MORE from the videos on this site, McHatton's DVDs, and the Stack and Tilt DVDs.

The reason you can't sustain the lag is because you are so eager to make the club move fast (a reaction to the intent of "hitting it far"). So on a full shot you throw it away too early, which doesn't happen for your short chip. (bts)

Ben doesn't teach a golf stroke on the video- mine is VHS- he explains the vocabulary and TGM chapters. I was a nice buy a few years ago but I'm a firm believer in our videos.
If you want- rent a lesson tape from Ben. you get to keep it for a while and he teaches his stroke pattern on it. 50 bucks a tape for 2 months.

A boat at the bottom of the ocean is not a boat! - Ben Doyle
I got me one of those a while back. It is especially good if your like a double plane shift with super-snappy snap releases! That is not a criticism, just that like many teachers Mr. Doyles has a personal preference. My video has him going through the 24 components. Of course, what was bit misleading (due to my own ignorance) was that there was not much in the way of the many variations. Obviously covering the samenesses as well as the variations is not realistic! So...my initial stab at TGM was to attempt Mr. Doyle's preferred pattern. Yoda introduced me to "hitting." Hitting helped me understand TGM's "Dirty Little Secret" per Yoda, namely right arm participation. I eventually came back to swinging. When I understood the passive role of the right arm in swinging what Mr. Doyle made better sense to me.
I, too, have Ben's video which needs watching as carefully as The Book needs to be read.
Like The Book, it is not a simple "how to do" but more an illustration of the concepts involved when applying the 24 components etc.. In this respect it is a visual confirmation of what we should have in our minds eye having read The Book.
Like The Book it is a form of reference and, as such, well worth the $.
Anyone got Ben's mat? And, if so, what do you think of its usefulness?
but I can advise you to buy Ben's DVDs.
