Oh I did, but there's nothing out there related to the golf swing except this critical view of Kelley:
http://www.network54.com/Forum/52812...liar+With....-
"The upshot of all this is that Kelly appears to have no real understanding of the biomechanics of the shoulder stroke. In the shoulder stroke, the arm pits don't really open. The "axel" of the "Paddle Wheel" would be the clavicle that connects the two shoulder sockets to make a unit, not unlike a coat hanger on a closet rod. When the "Paddle Wheel" turns, the whole shoulderframe rotates about the clavicle as a unit. This is not an arms action stroke, with the arm pits hinging open as Kelley describes."

Like feathering the clubface through the water. You've
got to be joking.

I don't know about a light bulb going off -- I think you are in the dark as much as me about this one, else you would have described what Kelley meant in your own words.
