What do you see as the "TGM way" to swing a golf club?

My right hip is probably 45* rotated from address at the top of the backswing. Since I've freed up my left foot and allowed it to roll and lift slightly on the backswing i've eliminated any tendency to hang back/reverse pivot. Also, more weight transfer is required to make Ballard swing work for me. Fat or blocked shots would result without full weight transfer back and through.

I still see all that movement as a sway or at least a big horizontal movement off the ball- it really moves the incline flat swing path horizontally when the left shoulder moves perfectly well around a stable spine. I understand Ballards argument as to why he says it isn't a sway- I tried to believe it myself but couldn't. I found that you can turn and rotate and the ball flies. Just be thought on it.

I agree that one swing for all is not realistic but I also believe that everyone must slightly modify the basic principles of any swing theory to accomodate personal physique, strength, and timing issues.

That is what TGM is all about. I have choices not only in the way I want to build my stroke but I can build strokes for a short game, scoring irons or drivers, too.
Take for an example, this month in Golf Magazine, it spoke of a full shoulder turn with the hands high like VJ or Els. Right ! Not many people can do that (or should). The Golfing Machine (I can write that without a trademark- huh?) is perfect for all sizes, shapes and ages.
