I believe everyone needs to get past the stroke patterns and see how Tomasello brilliantly approached the game through TGM. That's what seperates Tomasello from the rest of the AI's. Tommy gave the golfer the ability to use hitting and swinging with the three hinges in the most effective and efficient manner (Power and Precision and the ability to face any golf course condition). I have yet to see a more logical approach.

Well, I did not study enough or know enough to be qualified to 100% agree with you .. But I do support David when you said that.
1. Tom spent the most time with Kelly. So i believe his understanding of TGM is closest to whatever Homer Kelly wants us to know. And he communicated the idea to us, his way.

2. If we can understand Tom's explanations, we could understand a huge part of TGM. Every AI have slightly different procedures, or interpretitions , different ways of explaining. There is obviously no best way or worst way. As long as eventually we understand and the incubator hatched.

3. When he quoted saying in (video letter 2 .. TIme 10;00) push your hand down and out ... Or whatever u want to call it.. Now thats confusing right? but its not actually if its meaning is understood. he is still teaching swinging.. but arm still need to be straighten .. Why did he say Or whatever you want to call it.. meaning you can call it extensor action if anyone wants to . Evidently he explained the left wrist uncocking by CF ... he is teaching swinging. .. Using Layman language so he hope the one seeing the letter could understand.

4. He mentioned DRAG ( 11:00 minutes of letter 2.) as A interpretition of the wrong thing. One just cannot just drag the but way past impact... DRAG does not mean that... he is pointing to a common misconception. And that is what I thought to be at one time.

To explain the TGM concept.. he used different words and unique way , which may sound confusing but actually enlightening when all of these are studied in context. To the very best of my knowledge, Tom's video is all TGM and 100% in line with TGM .. just explained differently and I guess Tom really intend the letter to be easier to comprehend. But using a different word in his letter/video really lead people to assume he is not teaching TGM... I think thats what happened.
