What are friends for? Trig's swing has made a huge tranformation ever since he took ownership of it and he is deadly in our skins games as a result.

Iron sharpens Iron.

I took up the game 7 years ago at 39. Didn't even know how to hold a club prior to that. I found myself wading through all the trade rags trying to find the magic move that would break 100. Had a few lessons with the local range pro's at my club. All of them seeking their PGA qualification and each trying to get me to pattern after their swing. After a few years, the contradictions from every source nearly drove me away from the game for good. I did an internet search on "swing plane" which landed me on Chuck Evans first EZ-Board forum and read posts from Randy, Philly and a few others. The language was clear and precise and they seemed to understand the swing better than anything I had read till then, and I think they would readily admit they were really struggling to understand TGM at the time. You guy's have come a long way.

I made my way over to the Golfing Machine forum (when it was still active), and ordered the book from Sally in 99. Started posting and trying to learn the yellow book. Like Metallion said, it's been downhill (handicap-wise) ever since. On a really bad day I shoot in the low 80's. I'm convinced I would still be struggling to break 90 right now if I hadn't stumbled on TGM. Thanks Randy, Philly and especially Chuck for keeping the fires going. It's my time to help hold the torch and give back everything that Homer has given to me. My contribution is helping the worlds best G.O.L.F communicator bring Homers work to everyone that needs it as badly as I did, and still do. Lynn Blake is turning the golfing world upside down. The package is all there, the timing is right, and we all need to help deliver it.
Respect goes out to all y'all.
