[Yoda]

I think what Homer meant was that he had his own swing model in his
"Golfing Machine". He knew that if you cooperated with laws of
physics and geometry, that you would play well. I doubt he bothered much with
really studying pros swings later on in his research because he knew that
each individual would have their own way of doing things with their own
variations. As long as what they did complied with the physics and geometry
of a golf stroke, it didn't matter what they looked like doing it.

Once again, you are correct, MG.

Early on, Homer's constant Desktop Companions were the books (and most of
all, the photos in the books) of Hogan ("the best Mechanic") and
Snead (the "most natural 'my way' golfer"). He really liked Hogan's
Power Golf -- "especially Hogan's...the pictures were big and you
could really see...I about wore that one out." Over time, though, his
research revealed a level of perfection beyond the players of his time...or
ours. Consequently...

"You'll find that there is nothing there for you. You'll find somebody
who is having some success and you will spot flaw after flaw after flaw. So,
another one 'back in the bin.'"
