Nothing to do with his swing...he came in to golfsmith (dallas) today where I"m the clubmaker...looked very good, pretty trim...was buying steel shafts for his TM Rescues 19* 23* (DGr300), said graphite wobbled too much when hitting the ground...said he still uses DGs400 steel in his irons...bought a steel shaft for his three wood too, an old Cleveland Quad Pro I thought that was funny cause he could play anything, of course he doesn't have to do his own club work either, just something he likes...very gracious...I need to bring my 1976 Groove Your Swing My Way to work so he can autograph it...something I noticed..everytime he starts talking about equipment, he takes his stance while talking, still checking those alignments ...hp

Awesome! I got that Groove Your Swing My Way too. Gotta love a dude that based his swing on some pie plates. Buck Rocks!
I was a young west texas boy turned pro in 1975, Lee was the man...modeled my swing on that figure 8 and it does work, definitely could keep it out of the wind...later went more Ballard, even bought the yellow book in the early 80's but no comprendre at that time...this place is the end of the yellow brick road as far as I'm concerned...hitting it so much better
Many years ago Lee was doing an outing at our club, which was owned by one of the Casinos in Atlantic City at the time. I walked along and talked with him for several holes, and he can talk. I was doing alot of club repair and refinishing at the time. He was using an old MacGregor 4 wood. I actually had the same model that I had just refinished. We talked about equiptment, and he was showing off his knock down wedge shot. It was a very fun day. At the time I knew nothing about TGM or a good golf swing for that matter.
