This guy claims to have an AI Certificate. That means he didn't fall asleep for too long during a two day seminar and passed an open book test above minimum standards.
Daryl,
Even at the most basis level, there is more to being certified than that .
For those that embark on the journey toward A.I. status, this is the place to be. I was fortunate enough to have perfect grades in both the extensive written and oral testing as well as the demonstration portion. I don't say this to impress you, but to impress upon you the important of LBG. Everything you need to know is on this forum. I don't say that lightly. After spending so much time here, achieving A.I. status was a piece of cake and you can spend more time at the bar with you fellow A.I.'s in training ...then there is the dues.

Drew, You are a humble gentleman, and I know you are not saying that to impress, but I can't help it. What an accomplishment!!!

If that were true, there wouldn't be a need for a Golf Factory book.
Just read this post and it is disappointing to say the least. What is nice about this site is Lynn is courteous enough not only to allow "competitors" to be mentioned on the site, but also different ideas regarding the Golfing Machine. His gallery includes both Doyle and Tomasello for instance. Homer Kelley is dead. He cannot validate or endorse anything anymore. Doyle, Tomasello, Sloan and Blake all spent time with him, as did other instructors. All have different methods, to say one is right or wrong, which Mr. Blake never does, is simply arrogant and outside the spirit of a book that is designed to open people's minds about the golf swing, not close them. Other sites out there have rabid supporters who attack anyone who disagrees,one hopes this site does not become one. Delaware Golf is a gentleman and devotee of Tomasello's teaching. He has never criticized Lynn Blake's teaching in any post, I reviewed all of them. No one other than Tomasello and Kelley know what they discussed, Homer's taped lessons reflect some thoughts not put in the Golfing Machine explicitly and I assume he was always adapting, as any good scientist. I find some of Tomasello's lessons fascinating, as I do with Blake, Sloan, Evans, Fort and many others. Suggesting Delaware Golf go elsewhere for providing a perspective that we can disagree with or suggesting that some pro who took the time to write an online book about his interpretation of the Golfing Machine have it burned reflects a closemindedness that in no way fits in with the forty year search for truth about golf that Homer Kelley devoted so much of his life to. Those on this post who were harshest have wonderful posts and I learn a lot from them. Civility is a lost quality on the internet, it would be nice if it existed here at least.
Nice group of golfers ya got here Lynn!!! Resorting to violence in 20 posts or less. Sweet.
Lynn is probably very busy teaching simple alignments and making the game of golf fun for unskilled golfers like me and accomplished touring pros like, name a dozen or so.
DG, go teach someone something and you'll get lots of challenges and have fun, interesting adventures of the mind and spirit and a few disagreements too!
Of course, you'd do that if you wanted more than just an argument.

I'm against "Book Burning" but for the "Golf Factory" book, I'll make an exception.
May we add "Mein Kampf," by ah as long as the bonfire is going?
