Now Cochran and Stobbs or Jorgensen may have been thinking Lab while hitting balls on a range but not HK, he was thinking G.O.L.F.
Bottom line Mr. Kelley just figured the stuff out for pure love of it. I could be wrong about this but I don't think he had a college degree . . . to me that makes this whole deal even MORE IMPRESSIVE. The fact is the dude didn't really know physics or the terms so he got a college physics book to figure it out. So what? I mean if people just want to rip chapter 2 out of their book and heck all the others but chapter 10 . . . chapter 10 is just plain monumental. How many of the goobers could have even come up with the stuff in Chapter 10 and 4 and 6?

Oh, I think he did better than that. TGM was 28 years old BEFORE HK put it in book form. He had a great sense of applied science based on truths and laws. He didn't need a book to figure it out but he needed a book so We could understand what he knew.
