Awareness of TGM on tour?
 

Yoda and others : What is the awareness of TGM amongst PGA Tour players? Some obviously have a very good understanding having been taught by AIs such as yourself,Brian Manzella, vj, Chuck Evans, Ben Doyle, and others. Elkington is an AI. But what about the other players . How is TGM perceived on tour? Does anyone know how much Tiger knows about TGM and what his opinions are?

Elk is an AI?!??

Yuppers

I've heard Bobby Clampett and Steve Elkington are GSED's (awarded by Ben Doyle).

Stilll that does not answer hue's question. I've asked myself that same question many times. Would be interesting to hear a more thorough description of TGM status on tour.

I have a different view - which im not absolutely 100% sure but I believe Elkington is a GSEM and Homer awarded Bobby Clampet his GSED.....

Edging closer to truth....

The cached version of Ben Doyles homepage has that "Homer Kelley authorized Ben Doyle G.S.E.D. first and Bobby Clampett second."

The Golfing Machine homepage has that Elk is G.S.E.D.

Did not mean to jack your thread hue. I still hope the answer to your original question will show.

Yoda, vj, Brian ,others: What is your take on this question?

Three Little Words
 

I have no idea, hue, but my guess is that the awareness level is quite low; and where it does exist, the perception is one of impractical complexity. I would further say that few TOUR players have ever even seen the book, much less studied it. In sum:

Ignorance.

Indifference.

Prejudice.

We know from Brian M that David Toms was carrying a copy of the book around for several years.

Like Ben Doyle would say:

No no no noooooo.

David never carried around the book.

He carried ME around (and now 'consults' with me).
