Really did expect more for the price.

I think I can understand what you're saying. For how long have you been studying the book?
I started at the beginning of this year and got rather confused. I'm sure that if at that time I'd watched AG, I would have been confused too. But I found LBG, watched the videos here and learned from the discussion in the forum and then bought the AG DVD. There are tons of gems to be found there. I'm still digging to unearth them but I would have been able to do much about it six months ago.

Little did I know about TGM/Homer until Lynn came to our Summit 2006 in Sweden.

After his and Hennings presentation, I wished them "good luck" - this was tooooo complicated..

but I went home, started to read and, for me most important, watch all his videos(downloaded so I could re-watch whenever I wanted) and started to see things that made sense.

As Lynn says at 4,57 min into this clip
http://www.lynnblakegolf.com/index.p...oel-Class.html

" Toto....Look where we are...!"

Later that year I got Joe Daniels to come over to Sweden and conduct a GSEB class....
Only 3 persons attended....

During the pre-study to the class, I dont know how many times the book got thrown at the wall. My wife.... well lets say she wasn't pleased. But I found consolation and encouragement here.

I even asked Lynn for some guidance. his reply can be found here

Thank you Lynn!

The incubation process can never be hurried. It only took me 5 years before I could start quoting chapter / verse and cross referencing the different chapters.

Nice beginning, Justin.



Luv ya, man!



We gotta do something together down Singapore way.

You be the Home Town Preacher (and 'go to' guy). Me, the evangelist (from afar).

Same message.

Same results.

Only more of'em!

In Bucket's immortal words . . .

"Holla."

That would be fantastic Lynn - Barclays Singapore Open.

When the Evangelist comes, the Home Town Preacher will be a-sittin' in the crowd learnin'.

And just to add to learning TGM...I like to add that my students have been successful understanding it when they accept that TGM is an encyclopedia and not a how-to book.

The how-to happens when you understand the principles embedded therein and then apply it in the construction of ones stroke. Even then, one must acknowledge the limitations of one's physiology when selecting the various components.

Justin,

After five years of success in the USA and Scotland, I have earned huge support at Barclays. Thus far, however -- other than to discuss these issues -- we've done nothing at the Barclays Singapore Open. http://singaporeopen.barclaysgolf.com/

This -- the only 'Asian Major' -- is largely controlled by the Asian Tour and constrained (for me and others) by language and budgets.

This year's results and next year's expanded visibility puts the tournament 'on the map'.

Let's work together here.

You from the outside . . .

Me from the inside . . .

Together, we can make it happen!
