Yep . . . it's in the Authorized Instructor Curriculum.

What
Still don't see how anyone would not benifit from dowels.
I think its the best way to get the motions with speed.
But being not a full TGM guy I would like to here people explain if Im off based.
For and example this is how I into to many junior's how to develop speed and realase on the downswing.I find that kids get real hung up on the clubface and not the left arm(swinger models). With pitching its great for them to on shaft lean.
Anyway if anyone sees any thing that may work better let me know.

Homer Kelley did not use dowels as instruments to create 'speed.' Not that you can't use them for that...of course you can...and I do myself in certain drills.

But he did not.

Instead, he used them only as 'something to hold' as The Hands master their Chapters 4, 5 and 12-3-0 assigments.
