Taking Homer's Advice
HK: I couldn't grasp how the club took the path it did until I built the Inclined Plane. I think ANY instructor should construct himself an Inclined Plane . . . I was going to patent it. But I found out that IF I DIDN'T PATENT IT, NOBODY COULD. THEREFORE IT'S FREE FOR ANYONE TO USE.

This struck a chord with me when I listened to the tape. One thing I have learned is if Mr Kelley says something like

"I couldn't grasp how the club took the path it did until I built the Inclined Plane."

He means it is important and you had better sit up and take notice.

I am at home full time looking after my Mother as she goes through the chemotherapy process. I bought in some ply and 2 x 2 to make a full size plane board that I will erect in the garden to train my downswing in-between making cups of tea and meals for her. I am making it along the lines of the one in the book with the hole big enough not to interfere with the path of my hands. Are there any plans for a full size plane board out there that I could use before I start cutting wood? Training in this device has to be way better than just using plane lasers. I will be stuck at home for at least 7 months. My plan is to use this timer to study more and absolutely own my downswing plane through training in the full size plane board. As soon as I heard Mr Kelley mention the plane board . I though it is obvious I should have done this years ago.
Having met Yoda who IMHO knows the book better than anyone. I found the questions he asked showed that was not always the case. This has given me encouragement to keep on at it as knowledge is acquired and earned and Yoda is living proof of that and an example of what can be achieved .
