I'm a visual and left-to-right kind of learner and I would love to see any pictures of a player, IN ACTION, demonstrating some of the TGM lingo. Mrs. K is a great first step showing the pictures but it may be time to take it to the next 'more accurate' stage.
Daryl, love your math on a new book, but unfortunately you may be showing your age
This is the age of the internet and Lynn obviously has some skills in this game. Maybe this could be Lynn's premium section right here on his website. Hint hint...
I think the real Mrs. K was jealous enough of her without calling this other woman for Mrs. Kelley !

I was reading another thread and found this quote from someone...any guesses as to whom?
"Yes. And, Extensor Action should be part of Chapter Six; "Power Package".
The whole darn book should be re-written without changing a single concept or procedure. Color Pictures, Colored Overlays of the Flying Wedges, etc. 600 Pages. 25 bucks. Big deal.
A million Copies will be sold. It would become the standard text book for high school and college. Expanded and including video."
Im with you, Id LOVE to see some more of this sort of thing. Various patterns, etc. Maybe this should be a section in the Forum? That'd be cool. How 'bout a "Who am I ?" game with a daily addition of one component until someone identifies the player.
I would love to see an edition made for epublishing, the iPad, the Kindle, etc. This way I could bookmark, highlight, make notes and could study, study, study while I look, look, look (what does that really mean?)
With an iPad edition, there could be embedded videos, audios, diagrams, color photos, hypertext links, etc etc. It's so very user friendly. Lately I'm just saying goodbye to all my older forms of media.
How great would it be to have the yellow book, lynns DVD' videos etc all in one location. That way we could use our kindles ipads etc to look up parts of the yellow book that relate to lynn's teaching materials and watch associated video. Leave the yellow book alone. Where is that new DVD will it be out be Christmas.
An electronic ebook will all of us to post like Daryl. So if I wanted to learn to hit a lob shot I could look it up and be referenced to vertical hinging in the book , to lynn's information on dvd and videos of it execution.
Homer's work should stay untouched.
Would you add or subtract from a great work of art?
I think that its true value is in its use, not as a thing, so the work of art analogy doesn't work for me. (You can always buy an original edition or one of the subsequent additions to put on a bookshelf as a work of art.)
To me, this is a text book -- the more dogeared, worn, highlighted and noted the better in terms of absorbing the information. Just like a text book, we need new editions that change to match the latest findings and in the case of a lot of the discussion here, match the new media and ways of disseminating the knowledge inherent in a text book.
TGM is a system or methodology that helps me understand how to better strike a golf ball for me as an individual. That is its greatest advantage -- I can customize it to me and to a situation -- and perhaps its greatest curse -- there is a lot to understand and think about as opposed to other ways that advocate a single swing or pattern for hitting the golf ball.
The more ways we make this data available to individuals to understand in the way best for them, the more people that can take the information and turn it into knowledge that they themselves can apply on the golf course in each individual situation.
