I just started the new book "Ben Hogan's Magical Device". Although he doesn't mention TGM by name, author Ted Hunt fires a shot accross TGM bow in Chapter 3 entitled, "The General Problem"....
"They write lengthy, tortuous books on the subject - books that would cross a physicist's eyes. Such tomes need an engineer's dictionary for reference, and have been held up as the major factor responsible for destroying the careers of at least two professional tour players, leaving the once successful competitior talking to himself about the lost or stressed levers when he, before all others, would admit that his mind should be absorbed with the image of his target and not the mechanics of the swing.

In the words of the Immortal Bugs Bunny: "He don't know us very well, do he?"
