Here's a place I'd like Yoda to dump his accumulators!

It make me mad to see people making inaccurate statement about TGM. On page X
I, "This textbook can support individual "My Way" procedure but no "The Way Theory"!
Especially is a disgrace for those ex-GSDM making attack to TGM specifically after learning from TGM. Professionally will you openly attack anyone in your field?

Nice quote Daryti.
Mr McLean doesnt know the basic, basic of TGM ....that there is no one way! . The fact he calls it a "religion of the perfect way", or a "method" suggests to me that he hasnt cracked the book. A method with three trillion possible patterns would be correct. People on this site can attest to the fact that the book proposes no "method" or "one way".....that'd be way easier to understand and horribly narrow minded.
Like Bruce Lee, as Kock used to say, TGM is all ways. And there in lies its complexity.
"Religion of the perfect way" ......what a misguided statement. I just lost some respect for a guy I kind of liked.
Anybody know what might have motivated his lambasting of Homer? It cant be founded in intellectual discord when he is so ill informed. This isnt about Homer Im thinking, somebody did something on his rug I bet. Whatever.
Then again Ive heard this knock before ......and ironically often from guys who propose their way as THE WAY.

Mr. MacLean is just grasping at straws I'm afraid. Drumming up business?

Wow.......... good questions to think about and study, but pretty poor representation of TGM.

Uh Tom Lehman's swing is in the book. So is mine. He's got 1-L (a model that reveals the basic geometry of golf given the golf club) mixed up with building a robot golfer or something. "No weight shift"? Where's it say that in the book?

He had to bring up " Religion".  Wow, something must have yanked his chain enough to drive him over the edge like that.

10-14-E ZERO The Zero Hip Turn has no turn, slide or weight shift, and consequently, no knee or foot action. Most effective from Half and Half Fix (10-8-C).
