There seem to be two major schools of thought in learning golf.
#1 Sequential... Leadbetter's Links, TGM's Chapter 12-5, The Eight Step Swing, etc..

#2 Dynamic... The motion is not broken so much into segments, but is taught as a whole... Gravity Golf, AJ(Secret Revealed), DeLaTorre's teaching, I think is mostly as a whole swing concept, etc..

Payne Stewart would not think of positions, I am told. Couples, and I think Nicklaus are similar also.

Tiger and many others do use positions, or stages.

Do you think some people are better suited to one or the other, due to their learning style? Can TGM be taught as a dynamic whole from the start... with much success?

There are no positions in TGM. Homer refers to geometry, when you read the prefix, as motion. Not fixed lines but MOTION.


The book as a guide has to make references the three zones and the 24 components. No other way to write a book but .... TGM is not a method to teach. AIs make decisions on teaching.
The geometry is motion, fixed positions could never work except one: hold the finish and smile.
