I just wanted to share an email I received from a teaching pro in Charlottesville, VA. I was searching for a TGM guy near my house that I could work with some. I had sent him an email, and this was his response. I thought it said alot for TGM.
"Steve,
I’m sorry for the delay. I didn’t want to rush my response.
First of all, welcome to Virginia. I have been here for ten years…transplanted from Texas. Virginia is a great state and I’m proud to call it my home. I have been a PGA member since 1993. My father was a PGA golf professional so I grew up in the business. I’m proud of my association but I have never learned anything about the golf stroke from the PGA. What I have learned has come from Mr. Kelley and all the wonderful Authorized Instructors- Ben Doyle, Lynn Blake (Yoda), Chuck Evans, Joe Daniels and Brian Manzella.
I first learned of The Golfing Machine in 1982- the year Bobby Clampett lead after two rounds of the British Open. I will never forget the interviews- he was using terms that I didn’t understand. I purchased the book and have been studying it ever since. Two years ago I had an opportunity to attend a seminar hosted by Ron Gring (G.S.E.D.). After the seminar I asked him how he was able to become an A.I. He gave me Chuck Evan’s contact information which ultimately lead to my association with Joe Daniels. In February of this year I attended and passed Level I of the G.S.E.B. I will complete Level II as soon as I am able- four children and a full time job take a lot of my free time. My goal is to become a G.S.E.D.
Yes, I do teach using TGM principles- nothing else makes sense. I would love to get together to see if there is anything I can do to help you with your journey."
