I have personally made an attempt to describe TT's "right arm throw" action in TGM terms. I first described it as a triple barrel 1:2:3 swing action. However, Yoda stated that I was incorrect because the "1" should be reserved for a hitting action where the right arm powers the clubshaft through impact via PP#3. TT wasn't describing a hitting action, but a swinging action. I therefore modified my description and called it a RAPF4:2:3 swing action.
Jeff,
Thank you for all you are doing to shine the brightest light on Homer Kelley's The Golfing Machine. After some thirty years of study, I welcome your posts and know that the work itself can withstand relentless scientific scrutiny. Moreover, the Golf World has just now become empowered with a variety of scientific tools, e.g., launch monitors, that prove just how right Homer Kelley really was.
Now a question:
Do you have the Third Edition?
I ask this because, in the Third Edition, the first three (of six) Sample Stroke Patterns are relevant to your posts. Specifically, these three offer examples of One, Two and Three Accumulator Patterns, all of which employ the 1-2-3 Triple Barrel Stroke (Component #4) and the Right Arm Throw Trigger (Component #20) you earlier espoused.
With, I might add, a inconcongruence of Grip Type and Hinge Action with the later Basic Stroke Patterns of 12-1-0 and 12-2-0 in Editions 4-7. Specifically, in the Two Accumulator Pivot Stroke (12-2-0): the Strong Double Action Grip (10-2-D) and its Angled Hinge Action (10-10-C). And, in the One and Three Accumulator Strokes (12-1-0 and 12-3-0): the Right Arm Trigger coupled with Dual Horizontal Hinge Action.
Each of which is entirely consistent with Homer's original intent, i.e., "To present the solution as a Right Arm approach to the whole game" (1-F / Editions 1-3).
Anyway, this whole argument hangs on three or four sentences across the decades.
Lets take the time on this thread to get it right.
