I recently read Hardy's Plane truth and found some of the concepts to be very interesting. I am trying to find out the differences between TGM and Single plane theory. Trying to decide which will work better and help me achieve my goals.

I must be clear... I am certainly not asking anyone to bash Hardy's Theory, nor am I questioning the validity of TGM. I am simply trying to gain an understanding of each so that I can make an informed decision as possible about which road I should travel down.

Below is the copy of the email I sent to Ted.

Ted,

Thank you in advance for your time. I am looking to take my game to the next level. My index has been in the 0.5 to 4.0 range for quite some time (generally it is around 2.0). I would like to take it a touch lower and more importantly develop more consistency in my ball striking. I have competed in our State Am a few times and have also done well in the past in local Am events.

I want to become more consistent, and more competetive. I have taken 3 lessons in total in my life (I am 33 years old). I have always just had a mindset of "I'll figure it out on my own". I am a touch stubborn and it took me a while to learn that if I want to get my game to the next level, I am going to have to seek out the help of people that can assist me in getting there.

I am in my discovery phase for trying to find an approach that will help me get to where I want to go. TGM may be just that, Hardy's one plane may be that as well. I do not know enough about TGM to understand the difference between the two.

As I posted earlier, I am not at all questioning the validity of TGM, nor am I asking you to "bash" Hardy's theories of the one plane swing. I am just trying to gather as much info as I possibly can so I can make the best decision for what approach I need to take for my improvement process.

Looking very much to hearing back from you.

Regards,

Stags
I've had so many lessons today, but I'm going to try to get back to post a response soon.

I can help you get better, guaranteed!
