Popshots aimed directly at LBG . . . but Homer Kelley takes the bullets.

First shot . . . 1st Essential DOA
Second shot . . . Tripod takes a cap in datazz
Third shot . . . poor some beer on the curb for the 1st Imperative
Fouth shot . . . dirt nap for Extensor Action
Fifth shot . . . kiss the wife and kids for Angle of Approach Procedure
Sixth shot . . . why? why? why? Magic of the Right Forearm
Seventh shot . . . Delayed Pivot keep it real.

Other than that little bit of stuff . . . the Book's awight.

Oh . . . and the pulled the Maximum Participation Pattern from the grave. Up from the grave he arose!!!!!

Grap sodeez and moonpies! Biscuits and tenderloin!

The reason you can't sustain the lag is because you are so eager to make the club move fast (a reaction to the intent of "hitting it far"). So on a full shot you throw it away too early, which doesn't happen for your short chip. (bts)

Lets drop it. This isn't even half the story about what went on behind the scenes. We are here to study the Golfing Machine. The same book Yoda was taught from by Homer Kelley and teaches to all of us, even lurkers that use this remarkable book to their advantage.

Bucket - it started with the directions the grooves face after hinge action- went to ball positions, what frozen means to the right wrist, tripod. I'm sure I missed a few. Lynn provided the Homer Kelley answer- the TGM answer or description. Are the HK answers the right one? Well- it's his book. Are we allowed to challenge? Positively- that’s how we learn. Do you have to accept the answer- Nope.

But you don’t trash your friends or plot against them over such things. That's just BS.

Witcha . . . I don't have a problem with people saying Homer was wrong, Lynn was wrong, Festus was wrong, Barney was wrong, Elmo was wrong, Goober was wrong, Gomer was wrong, Beavis was wrong . . . we can ALL be wrong.

My issue is with people who obfuscate (that's right . . . ) . . . Mr. Kelley spoke and Mr. Kelley wrote. And some think THEY can spoke and wrote for Mr. Kelley . . . and that there can't stand. Some want to defend AI's and that's just fine . . . but WHO is charged with defending Mr. K? Huh? What?

I don't know what good us talking about it does, but if I was being slandered I would shout from the roof tops just as Lynn feels compelled to do when the slanderous comments are at their worst.
