Here is my 2 cents. I am also primarily a hitter, but have been experimenting with swinging with longer clubs. Soooooo, Ben Doyle's video does show a swinging procedure, but SO much more. All of the components are demonstrated and explained, etc. He is the 1st Authorized Instructor of the Golfing Machine. If only for historical significance I think EVERY TGM student should own a copy of his video. When you call to order it HE answers the phone and will talk to you a little bit. And when the video arrives he has autographed it. It is a classic (in my humble opinion). Buy it.( He donates some of the purchase price to various charities.)
I also have all of Brian's videos as well------very good material. He was trained by Ben Doyle so some is similar, but he has a different method of presentation and, if I am not mistaken, differs in a few areas. He does have a little hitting in some of his videos.
I have Chuck Evans video (it is on DVD as well) and it is basic TGM without any TGM terms discussed---and it is a swinging procedure presented. If you subscribe to his site he has a number of 2-3 minute videos----a number of these compare swinging vs hitting and are, overall, excellent.
I'm sure you have checked out the gallery section on this site which has a wealth of information on hitting,swinging, 12-5-0,bunker play, Tomasello.....you get the point.And it is free.I join you and perhaps a couple of thousand others while we await the new DVD's Lynn has coming out. You just know they will be awesome---the guys who had a sneak peak a couple of months ago already said so! For now,join me as I study the clip of Ted Fort hitting his pitching wedge,the side-by-side of Lynn and Ted hitting drivers, and the clip of Lynn giving a driver demonstration in the cold weather where he "hits" a number of shots and then changes to swinging. And wait for the new stuff from the green guy.
Hope this answers some things for you,curtisj76----that's the way I see it in my early journey in TGM. PM me if I can be more specific. Now, if I can only get our moron quarterback to quit riding a motorcycle............ Dr Dave
