To quote page 5 of the 6th edition:-
"As a term is specifically defined herein,that is the basic connotation which is always a dictionary definition but not necessarily that of physics,electrical ,etc.And the dictionary is generally considered a standard of precision.Scientific terms in quotes denotes a loose application with obvious intent,because no better term seems available .Measurements given herein are for the golf course rather than the laboratory but the laboratory will show them well within acceptable tolerances.Clarity and usefulness are the only motive.The result is that this book provides a complete ,unified golfing terminology."
SO WHICH PIECE OF THAT DO YOU "knockers "NOT UNDERSTAND!!!!!!
I'm an Engineer (civil) ,and I do understand certain things about force ,motion ,levers ,vectors ,etc etc etc .
And I really don't give a sh** whether some nitpicker wants a fight about how "correct" Mr Kelly was -There isn't one to be had!
-read above!
If you can't read the book -on the basis it was written ,and play better,then see an AI .
Or write your own .
Just get off the "what's wrong with the technical side "bandwagon.
IF YOU READ IT -HE TOLD YOU!

Wow didn't know you were an engineer! I figured that you were like some kinda international playboy type when I met you in O-town. I'm a guy and all that but I had you pegged for intergalactic pimpdaddy of the year type . . . with the whole accent, rugged good looks and impish charm. And now smart too!!! I may start "playing for the other team!"

Steeaaadddyy Bucket!-What do you mean "the other team"!
I might have to get "the other half" to pay you a visit -and THAT would be worse than anything you'd expect from Mike O.

Neil,
And you thought I was going to delete your post...
But...jeez...looking back I probably should have for your own protection.
I'm sorry I wasn't quicker on the trigger son. Best of luck.
Was Kelley right???
Absolutely...Until someone proves him wrong.
All I've heard is a bunch of sabres rattling by self-professed "smart" guys with no proof presented other than..."trust me...Homer is wrong".
I believe this thread has been started in the spirit of moving G.O.L.F. science forward by either standing on Homers shoulders and adding to the knowledge base, or proving one or more of his fundamental theories incorrect. Either way, its a valiant effort.
Again...Best of luck.
