In my opinion, The Golfing Machine is a great resource for those who want to teach the golf swing and, therefore, need a technical understanding of all of the possibilities so they can find a pattern that best fits their student.
As an instruction "how to" book for the average player, it is poor.
I feel , that is an extremely good point. Like what Comdpa told me. I do not have to Understand TGM and get confused by the book. Thats the job of the coach. You only need to understand how to swing it effectively. But , to me this book is so amazing. Homer Kelly is a Genious. Well its a cheaper and more effective way to stimulate my brain cells than going Karaoke or play Mahjong.
Why I written the above is simply trying to stimulate people ask themselves what is the Author's Objective of TGM . Instead of following because someone say its good or leaving because someone say its bad. I believe by asking yourselves this question, people might understand the existance of TGM, and have a better chance of deciding for themselves their own preference.
I may have lead or mislead people. But the end of the day. Analyse, think and be the captain of your ship ! Seize the day!

Latest incubator: Finally appreciate why Hogan wrote 19 pages on GRIP. I bet he could write another 40 pages.
Homer started out with problem to solve after playing, I believe, his first round of golf. The problem was compression- how to sustain the Line of Compression on the ball which I guess was an observation he had for to good ball striking.
Homer was a problem solver. One answer lead to other questions. After 30+ years of solving problems- the yellow book was published.
