Right you are, fellows. I remember the poster of a young lad wearing a baseball glove and holding a bat on his shoulder. The caption read: "The greatest experts were once beginners."
I have written before that The Golfing Machine® is a journey whose rigors test all who attempt it. Mastery comes only at a price, and the coin is dedication and persistence. There are no exceptions, including Homer Kelley himself.
I once asked him, "How did you do it, Homer? How was it possible?"
I would be very interested to know how good a golfer Homer was. I have no doubts he could demonstrate everything in the book, but did he also enjoy simply playing a round of golf?
When Lynn Blake asked him about 10-3-E Putt and the motionless Right Shoulder was his reply that it could be executed as a "Swing" or "Hit", thereby matching the Full Stroke Pattern?.
The Minor Basic Strokes are usually for the Short Shots only and can be used in combination with the Major Basic Strokes. Most can be employed Hitting or Swinging. Certainly, that is the case with the Putt Minor Basic Stroke.
