For me, that approach makes the most sense. I believe that's where Tommy's real genius came into play. The vision of a hitting and swinging approach to the game. MAXIMUM TGM with the most efficient and full power stroke patterns in the book. Applying full power and accuracy. As the only Taylor Made slogan use to go...."DON'T HOLD BACK".

The two series of tapes- the Aussie set and the three from Lee, do not speak of 12-1-0 or 12-2-0. Neither talk about Start down with a hip moption then turn. The Blake-Hull video talks about the Start Down at the end of discussion about Acquired Motion.

Tomesallo is trained in the TGM but does not on those tapes deal with 12-1-0 or 12-2-0, so how can I recommend or advise someone to watch something that is not covering the topic. Pot shot- Hardly. Paranoia (yours)- certainly.

TT used many TGM ideas when he developed his pattern. So did Ben Doyle (4 barrel) and others. GREAT. But I can only speak for the two Homer laid out. Inferior, I know, but WTF- I’ll stick with them, okay? So when I talk about TT pattern- which I don’t but if I do and I am wrong- correct me. But if I speak about Homer’s and I am wrong- TT is not the correction about those strokes. When it comes to TT stroke pattern as taught to you on the three days in SC- nobody knows it better, but honestly, a disclaimer about your posts would have saved many aggravation over the years.
