My take on it as well. I look at it this way. A lot of us have a basic idae how a car engine works, but would you really attempt serious engine work without a workshop manual that gives you all the specs, tolerances,unique language,terms and procedures? Unless you are a very experienced mechanic, probably not, and even then, you likely have a shop manual for reference. Would a shop manual be useful to a novice who barely knows how to check the oil? Probably not. Homer Kelly authored a workshop manual for the golf swing. Lynn and Ted are very experienced in the contents, and probably only use it periodically like the very esperience auto mechanic. As a tool for the novice golfer, it holds about the same value as the shop manual does for the neophyte auto mechanic.

The only problem with not having somebody competitent is INCOMPLETE instruction through faulty translation . . . In efforts to keep things simple stuff gets omitted that is very critical to the whole . . .

BUT that being said . . . I guarantee that dude that played the senior tour that lived on a farm and played with clubs that got burnt up in a fire got it via INSTINCT.

There certainly are different ways to LEARN it . . . however . . . there has to be an OPTIMUM/more efficient way . . .

Mr. K of course almost MANDATED the use of an AI. And I'm sure there are some of them that "ain't got it."
