*scratches head* Why haven't I heard of this?

I've been interested in golf for quite a few years. Until recently I had never heard of TGM. Why is that? I mean.. the book was written just before the turn of the century (or close to it), so it's been out there all this time.

Welcome aboard, Andretti, and thanks for this first post. Keep'em comin'!

And about that book...

The first edition was published way back in 1969. So you see, it's been around even longer than you thought!

Yoda, please make make that 36 years old. I was born in 1968, and I don't want to lose a whole decade.

Ouch! Thanks, loubert, I've made the change. So much for my math skills, Georgia Tech grad and all!

But remember, Homer began his research in 1941. So, the book was twenty-eight years old when it was born.

That would make it now sixty-four years old!

*blushes*

I actually meant the 1800-1900 turnover as a joke to how long it's been out.... =) I obviously haven't noticed that we are living in the 21st century!!

As soon as my knowledge and expreience builds up, I'll ask more for sure!


Or... what the heck:

When I uncock the left wrist in the downswing, shall I do it to the extent that my left forearm lines up with the left thumb?
And do this take place simultaneously with a roll of the forearm, or is it prior in a sequence order?

Thanks!
