Get the book...ASAP. PM Lynn about studying with Ian. I believe Lynn was over your way recently giving Ian instruction.
Rick,
You can learn alot on this site. But what I have found is that this site works best as a translator/commentary for The Golfing Machine book. It still works best learning from the text and then asking questions about it.
As for not learning all of TGM, you probably shouldn't. But you should learn about such topics as the 3 imperatives, 12 stations, 3 zones, etc. Why? Because these explain the mechanics and geometry of the golf swing, which doesn't change over time. Once you get with an AI and create your swing with the proper components, it is easier to fix when things go wrong. Most other golfing instruction is based on conveying feel of a golf swing to a student.
Good luck on it. It's fun. Sometimes feels like trying to swallow a riverful of information, but it does get clearer.
It sounds like you want golf to be your profession. Just like any profession (medicine, engineering, law, carpentry, bartending), you have to spend a lot of time up front just to learn the lingo and basics. Then it becomes easier and you can be more proficient.
