Hi all.
I am new to the golfing machine and new to this forum. I am planning on attending the schools in February for Level 1 and Level 2. I am trying to get prepared for the school and learn as much about the golfing machine as I can. Where should I start??
I have started to read the book but I am finding it difficult to follow
Start with a question?
Look at the chapter and section headings in the book- does anything jump out at you?
The Imperatives? The machine concept of 1-L? How about the preface? Kelley's preface has more golf information in it then most entire golf books?
Why is a flat wrist important?
What is the difference between the physics of the stroke and the geometry of the stroke? How many are there?
what are pressure points?
Besides reading the book- go lightly with it at first. Read past threads and see what interests you and - Ask a question. It is a long and fascinating path
For a TGM for "Dummies" guide- the videos are some of the best in the tgm golf world.
Having attended and passed both schools you will be attending, all I can say is that you will have a great time and you will learn so much. As far as getting prepared for school 1 I would take time to get a good understanding of the terms located in the "glossary". Most of the 1st day will consist of getting the definitions down. Next I would follow the outline that you will be presented prior to going. As always starting with the outine given in the preface of the book as to how you should follow the chapters and topics. Finally, be prepared for a lot of writting each evening. The questions for the exam will have you writting until your hands bleed! Stay ahead of the game and do as much answering of the questions as you can each day. I promise you will get a great deal of information from the experience. Enjoy!

"Sustain (Yang/陽) the lag (Yin/陰)" is "the unification of Ying and Yang" (陰陽合一).
The "LAW" creates the "effect", which is the "motion" or "feel", with the "cause", which is the "intent" or "command".
"Lag" is the secret of golf, passion is the secret of life.
Think as a golfer, execute like a robot.
Rotate, twist, spin, turn. Bend the shaft.
Thank you guys for all the help. I will definitely go through the book a few times. The glossary is probably what I need to focus on the most as the terminology is really confusing me right now. I have another question for those that have been through the class: Would you suggest taking both level 1 and level 2 back to back or do you think it would be more beneficial to take level 1 and wait a few months then go to a level 2 class?
Again, thanks for all help!
