Thanks for the info. I am glad to hear that most of concepts Evershed teaches now align with what he learned from Tomasello. I think the Knowledge video and the Tomasello clips complement each other very nicely. I have found that Evershed goes into more detail on certain concepts (such as the quiet body), whereas Tomasello's explanation of how the hands work, and sequencing are presented better. When I first started applying some of Evershed's concepts, I misunderstood how the hands worked (this was prior to my venture into TGM). In executing the right wrist bend, I also was bending the left wrist and destroying the left arm flying wedge. A lot of shots to the left of left resulted.
In the past couple of weeks I have rewatched the Evershed video along with applying the teachings of Tomasello and am quite pleased with the results. Contact is better and my misses are nowhere near as bad as they used to be. Better yet, I am beginning to know WHY I missed a shot and am able to correct the fault more quickly. I still need to work a lot on extensor action, and a visit to an AI is certainly in order, but overall things are progressing well.
Also, I think Tomasello's ten-step drill is brilliant. I finally know where everything ought to be and how to get there. Whether I am actually achieving those positions is still open to question, but knowledge is the first step in the right direction.
Thanks again for the feedback, and a big thank you to Yoda, et al, for hosting this site and providing the incredible wealth of information and resources.
