Thanks for the info. I believe he was a man I would like to have known. I'm sure there are many here who can shed light on TGM so I think I will order the book. There are so many methods out there being advertised as "The way to make golf easier and knock 12 strokes off your game in a week". I have only been working at this game for 11 years and at an 8 handicap I guess I haven't done too badly but when I play with guys who are 5 to scratch or better I realize just how lacking I am. It truly is a humbling game. Don't really see how anyone who plays golf could ever be snobbish. Thanks again for the information.

Tommy's videos are really good. I've picked up so much good information on this site, (the short game video was PRICELESS.) There's something about Tommy's videos that just click. This thread is very timely as I fought some of the issues in the initial post that I just worked through this morning.
I apologize for not using the correct terminology, but previously I had worked on getting at impact fix at the top of the swing. In the Tomasello 'pivot' video he talkes about setting the impact fix as the first move, then pivoting. I tried it today and lost the push I that had haunted too many of my iron shots. Everything was dead straight from a 5-iron down.
And now I just read the 'swivel thread'....there is SO much I feel clueless on, but my golf swing has improved tremendously since getting on this site!!!

Tommy is great to listen to ...in a video clip that I recently rec'd he had a great quote regarding all the so-called experts who write about golf mechanics...
"opinions are like noses...everyone has one...they all have holes in them...and they smell alot".
Not sure if it's an original...but it's a classic!
Yep, I've heard sayings similar to that but it wasn't noses if you know what I mean. I think he was being a gentleman. The only things I've seen of him are the vids here. Are any of you aware of others or any books? Thanks.
