Why didnt I paint it and patent it????
You still can.......
Only the Original Inventor can apply for a patent. It's the Law. If you can prove that you designed the gizmo 1 day before they did, then only you can be granted the patent. Even if you refuse to apply for one, they still cannot have one.
Martin is definately a TGM guy, but he doesn't soley teach "the machine". The 5 or 6 lessons I saw him give, at least 2 of the 3 were covered: 1.) flat left wrist at impact; 2.) tracing a straight plane line (using the "generic smart stick"); 3.) hinge action.
If you never read TGM, you wouldn't know he teaches it. In my opinion, he does a great job explaining things without getting too techincal.
He is one of the few "top teachers" that I will stop and listen to. Has given Homer Kelley and TGM credit in some of his videos. Check out the hinges in this video (flying wedges...hello!)
Even more impressive is the fact that he called me and apologized for being hard to get a hold of!!! Pretty humble guy to say the least.
I think there are a lot of guys out there that teach TGM without even knowing it. I love this site, as well as David Orrs. But, so many people still think TGM and think technical. This is true, but it doesn't have to be that techincal. If more instructors had just a background in TGM, teaching would be significantly different...and better.
I think any "top teacher" that preaches a few principles found in the book, are giving it a lot of justice. Sorry to get on a soapbox!

Acutally- TGM might be the ONLY "feel" system in Golfdom
