Air,

This is only my opinion and it changes when my knowledge changes. However, here’s where I am today after too many years to admit. I wish I "could" have comprehended this on day one. It was all there in front of me, everybody told me, Yoda drilled it into everybody at the seminars, but I just couldn't grasp the significance of the "Science".

I think that you should try to understand something before anything else. Although TGM is vastly different from any other system of Golf, there is one single underlying premise, that seems to guide the entire system, and there is no other system, theory, or method ever transcribed, to my knowledge that ever considers it.

A golfer can swing a Club with an Angular Force, so that the Ball responds as if a Linear Force has been applied. The secret to achieving this is “Hinging”. The result is a perfectly straight Ball Flight Path from a square stance, with a square plane line, and a parallel target line.

"the Hinge Action (2-G) of an Angular Motion (2-K) operating on an Inclined Plane (2-F)"

Any Method can teach you how to hit a golf ball but "Alignment Golf" is about hitting it effectively.

The problem with all learning is that it usually isn't easy before you have learned it - then it becomes easy.

Your understanding of TGM is on the "I understand" level. All beginners start on the "I don't understand" level.

All though I know a little - absolutely nothing comes from reading the book. Everything is from watching the DVD and videos and reading on the site + Kevin's notes.

So what you have stated for me - thanks BTW - does not really make sense for me other than I have heard/read about it before - and it's helps to recognize the wording, but to tell the thruth: it doesn't give me a clear understanding of anything - it's only difficult words appearing to say hallo and goodbye at the same time.

But I'm starting today reading 3 pages each day to get thru the whole book for the first time. Then maybe it will make more sense...
