Personally i have no idea how Yoda puts up with you given your cunning personal slights and degradations.
John,
I do not post messages on this site or any website to start an arguement, I'm here to seek the truth in a positive way....but really, you don't know me. And I believe the people who I have helped with TGM will see through your comments.
I'm sorry, I believe my perspective is a lot different then yours. I have yet to experience any revelations about the book with Lynn's instruction. I had over ten years with the book and read the book every day for 5 or 6 years (1991 to 1996-1997 got a lot of my questions answered with my instruction with Tom Tomasello in 1993)...I stopped reading it every day soon after I went back to school in 1996...but still read it a lot until I completed my two Engineering degrees in 2000) when Lynn came on the seen, it's been fun watching the little green man grow as an instructor.
btw....I remember when most of you were learning about the hitting stroke a few years ago....for me it was fun to watch/read/listen to your discovery....it was something I knew about...practiced and incorporated into my game over 10 years ago. I believe soon you will come to realize the genius behind Tom's decision to develop a swinging school, hitting school and advanced school to make a student a really complete...high level player/shot maker.
For me...it appears the true dividing line is the swinging stroke pattern....is it a true dividing line or is it an area in TGM that will bring together the whole TGM community....I hope it's the latter. I didn't start this thread to take sides...only to seek the truth. How could I not with a GSED who claims he knew the book better than anyone (Tomasello.crica 1987/1988 )...Tom also said he studied TGM closely with Homer for 5 years (which included hours and hours of phone conversations on audio tape). And Tommy claimed Homer became like a second father to him...I truly don't believe that Tommy deviated from Homer's instruction...

You might want to review my above Posts #9, #34, #120, #124, and #128. Maybe you missed a nugget or three.

Can you explain the difference between Circle Delivery and Straight Line Delivery....and the concept of a small wheel and a large wheel and how they relate to the Circle and Straight Line Delivery. And also how one would execute that with their stroke pattern....swinging or hitting.

Yes, but why go into all those pesky facts now? Let's just enjoy the current moment and throw the club with the right arm to trigger the start of the downswing.

Sorry Yoda....that was a serious request? Might give you an opportunity to teach me something. Right or Wrong???

I luv ya, DG, but having been 'round the block with you more than once or twice these past five years, I must defer. Somehow, it always results in the same ol' song. I respect that song, of course, and applaud your ability to sing it. It's just that . . .
I think we all get it now and are ready to move on.
My perspective:
Click, watch as the rotor spins the record (close-ups halfway through), then minimize -- and enjoy! -- as you contemplate on these things, then KNOW that . . .
This wouldn't be possible without a flat left needle....

This is LAG.
Rotor lag. [Body]
Record lag. [Arms]
Needle lag. [Hands]
Music lag. [Club]
Just do it.
We all get it know...get what??? Lynn....cop out!!! If I had a tune to pick....it would be the "Carpenters" "We've only just begun"...the only insight that I'm aware of is....there is a whole lot of new info coming from Tommy.

I am one of the many you graciously passed Tommy's DVD onto at basically cost of postage well before it was on this site. I will always be thankful and appreciative of that fact. Tommy is a great man, and great teacher. I love the DVD and learned a lot from it and just flat out enjoy it. I'm not going to get into any debate about deviations, fallacies, misconceptions and the like, Yoda is more than capable on that front.

Now the bad. My comments will be seen for exactly what they are by the majority. There is no hidden agenda (i am up front rest assured) and i have never started trouble on this or any other golf website. Those that "see thru me" are probably extremely (overly perhaps) grateful to you for your various gifts from Tommy as well as your seemingly fine knowledge of the so called right arm swing. Also, no doubt your relentless pursuit of spreading the Tommy word adds much color and interest to any forum - when kept in check via manners and respect.
Even in this thread your manners have degraded to the point (epecially to the host) where you'd be banned from other places. Healthy debate is good, but not when it turns to one eyed (and at times rude) obsession.
Hopefully i've kept my comments in check enough for them to be seen correctly and for exactly what they are.

Then can you tell me from MY perspective why I started this thread?
I'm sorry but when you mention the word obsession in the context of golf and double that for The Golfing Machine.....that's really humorous. That's like calling the kettle black BIG TIME...and that goes for all of you Homer Kelley devotees. I'm doing no more studying the instruction of Tom Tomasello then you are studying the work of Homer Kelley.
