[Yoda]

Someone here deserves a medal for sticking to the fundamentals!

Thanks, BerntR. I appreciate the kudos and am proud of helping my students build their golf strokes according to time-tested fundamentals. And, thanks to Homer Kelley, being able to teach them with a precision unknown to most 'methods'.

This doesn't mean I'm a 'Johnny One-Note' or some diehard, stuck-in-the-mud defender of an antiquated status quo. In fact, I'll be starting a thread soon where we will explore TGM's essential Geometry -- as actually written in the book (and not as misunderstood and pilloried elsewhere). Along the way, we will examine that Geometry in the light of D Plane Theory and TrackMan analytics.

In the end, I believe today's technology -- once its own limitations are also understood -- will validate, not contradict, Homer's work. Moreover, I believe it will enable us to better understand what these modern 'black boxes' are telling us and how we can best use the information to benefit our own games and those of our students.
