No, that's not what I'm taking about. Go to Impact Fix with an Intact Right Forearm Wedge and put the Shaft on the Elbow Plane, then, keeping a "Level" Right Wrist, move the Shaft to the TSP. Look how that changes the Alignment of the Wedge. It doesn't only change the Shaft and forearm, but the entire way the Wedge is Aligned is different. Note also that you can have the Shaft on the Elbow Plane and have the Wedge aligned to the TSP and Visa Versa.

If you don't see a major Alignment Change then you don't fully grasp the Right Forearm Wedge. You need to Bend your Right Wrist, Keeping it Level and then wrap it with Ace Bandages to keep it stable. Then go to Impact Fix, however you won't have the opportunity to change the #3 Accumulator Angle. I guess you gotta go one on one.

I've found many examples of the TSP used by Pro's and have put them up for Review. Look at Phil Mickelson.

Patrick,

I really enjoy studying different teachers. As you know, I think we can learn from everybody. That is especially important for teachers as we will get questions on many different theories. We need to separate what we learn from others for our teaching, from the way we go at playing our own game.

While nobody is wrong, their ideas may not mesh with the foundation you are learning here. Don't fall in love with any theories outside of TGM until you work with Lynn in April. Lynn has studied EVERYTHING, and he will teach you Patrick's Method. It will be tailor made, and what you need to work on in your own swing forever. I've seen it, no two people are taught the same thing by Lynn. It's amazing.

Stay the course my friend. Go ahead and study others, but go into Cuscowilla with an open mind knowing that you will leave with the information you need for you and you alone.

To prepare, keep studying the basic foundation of TGM. The Essentials, the Imperatives, 1-L The Machine. Study wrist positions and as our friend Dodger recommends:

7-3
4-D-0
4-D-1
6-B-3-0-1

THE G.O.L.F. SWING IS:
1) THE HINGE ACTION = Clubface Control – 2G
2) Of an ANGULAR MOTION = Club head Control – 2K
3) On an INCLINED PLANE = Club shaft Control – 2F

THE THREE ESSENTIALS ARE:
1) A Stationary Head
2) Balance
3) Rhythm

THE THREE IMPERATIVES ARE:
1) A “Flat” Left Wrist
2) A Club head Lag Pressure Point
3) A Straight Plane Line

THE MACHINE CONTROLS THREE FUNCTIONS
1) The Inclined Plane is CLUBSHAFT Control – See 2-F and 4-0
2) The Pressure Points are CLUBHEAD Control – See 2-K and 4-0
3) The Left Wrist is CLUBFACE Control – See 2-G and 4-0

THE THREE STATIONS OF THE MACHINE
1) ADDRESS - be as prepared as possible
2) THE TOP - be as precise as possible
3) THE FINISH - be as smooth and complete as possible through Impact to the Finish

THE STAR SYSTEM TRIAD
1) ·The THREE IMPERATIVES (2-0)
2) ·Controlling the THREE FUNCTIONS (1-L-A/B/C)
3) ·Through the THREE STATIONS (12-3)

THREE ZONES
1) BODY CONTROL Pivot Body Balance
2) CLUB CONTROL Power Arms Force
3) BALL CONTROL Purpose Hands Direction

Focus on the MACDONALD DRILLS.
Since you and I worked together last summer, I have learned that everything you need for your weight transfer and hip motion is in those drills!

The more you KNOW the basics and have them ingrained in your computer, the faster you move to the next level in your lessons.

GEOMETRICALLY ORIENTED LINEAR FORCE
If you don't like a given Component Variation, recommended or otherwise, then HOMER KELLEY would be the first to tell you to avoid it and use something else. The reasons for 'not liking' something ranges from physical inability to execute to psychological. There are ten trillion Strokes in TGM, roughly half Hitting and half Swinging. Use the one(s) you like. Again quoting HOMER, "Do whatever you like. Have fun! Enjoy the game!" HOMER KELLEY

I will compare these sections with Lynn's videos and the other insightful posts found here and report back. I am in love only with effective golf and LBG. I am very fond of MN and (IL and Toronto) I'm sure I will become fond of Cuscowilla.
