I like to align my machine square, and catch it a little more on the back of the circle than some, and my compensation is setting up with, and trying to maintain a bit of an open face. My path at impact is a little more right of the face, at least that's the goal for me. There are options in how to flight it, and options as far as how you visualize what you want to accomplish. Good players have always had to make compensations for what they feel and see. I loved hearing my friend John say that D-Plane and Homer Kelley aren't very far apart. In my opinion, the small amount that they may be apart is semantics, and doesn't affect what I feel or teach. A little deeper into the "science" than I need to get, and certainly deeper than should affect how we feel about each other as professionals. Everybody posting at LBG right now is on the same team IMHO, those that aren't have gone elsewhere. Kevin What makes TGM interesting and impressive to me is that Mr. Kelly was able to perceive the actions and dynamics that others had, but did so in a comprehensive, unified theory based on sound biomechanics when not too much information was floating around.
